Can you be more specific?  I can see why you wouldn't like the
formatting of <dl>, but I wouldn't call that "major problems"; and
anyway, formatting is something between the browser and its user.

How about using <dl compact>, e.g.,

<dl compact>
<dt><a name="fn-40">40.</a>
<dd>We use ...
</dl>

On x-mosaic this formats quite similar to <ol>.

It's unfortunately no longer maintained.  However, linking it with a
an improved libwww might be enough.  Unfortunately this won't help
those who use existing binaries.
