There seems to be a problem with linespacing when I view the handbook
in Netscape, which I don't think has been mentioned specifically
before.  It could be a browser bug because I see the problem with
netscape (4.x) but not with mozilla, konqueror or opera.  

Take a look (with netscape 4.x) at 
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/x-fonts.html#ANTIALIAS

While the first few lines are spaced slightly wide (in agreement with
most of the handbook), lines further down are close spaced.

This seems to happen when there's something like this in the sgml file
  <para>some text here
    more text
    more text
  <screen>
  some screen stuff
  </screen>
    more text
    more text
  </para>

that is, if I include <screen></screen> within a <para> before closing
the <para>.  In that case everything after the <screen> gets
close-spaced when viewed in netscape.

Am I not supposed to do this?  Or is this just a bug with netscape?
