After a bit of poking at it, I couldn't find another way to do that
than using a <variablelist> structure.  Which is an annoying amount
of markup to be adding to each table cell, but I guess we could live
with it.  A bigger problem is that docbook applies styles to the
<dl> structure that, at least by default, add a LOT of vertical space.
Doesn't seem real workable unless we can undo that.
