Your <LI>s are not within any kind of list structure (<UL>, <OL>, ..).
Instead, you have put the whole mess in a <PRE>, where block elements
aren't allowed at all.  I suggest you try to use valid HTML.

The development code's SortaSGML parser treats this as if the <PRE>
wasn't there at all.  The "traditional" lynx parsing does something
else.  Both fall under error recovery.  With the devel code you can 
switch to an alternative parsing mode (more or less the same as the
TagSoup parsing from the fotemods code) with the ^V key.  For valid
HTML you shouldn't see a difference (except possibly for the handling
of </P> in some cases).

You can also read replies in the mailing list archives.
