Nested lists break PDF export (smart quotes)

List definition

• item1
  • subitem1
  • subitem2
• item2

produces the following HTML code

<ul class="star">
<li> item1<ul class="star">
<li> subitem1</li>
<li> subitem2</li>
</ul></li>
<li> item2</li>
</ul>

where the first <li> is terminated at the end of the nested list. The item should be terminated at the end of the first line before starting the nested list.

On our 1.0 installation this causes the PDF export to fail with the following stack trace:
