Bug#68492: I can't reproduce this
Hi all,
well, I did not know the reason but I reproduced this bug!
I did not investigate so precisely but when I compiled test2.tex
with latex then certainly the generated DVI lacked the black circular
points in front of the item's.
But if I compiled it with jlatex (of jtex-bin which is a Japanized
TeX system) then there was no problem and it was very strange (to me)
but the generated DVI files have the same size (both showed the
message; Output written on test2.dvi (1 page, 344 bytes).)!
The included files seem the same and the difference I noticed is that
original latex is of "LaTeX2e <1999/12/01> patch level 1" but
jlatex is of "LaTeX2e <1999/06/01> patch level 1".
The diff of latex.ltx's between '99/06/01 and '99/12/01 is
(trivial diff, i.e. the parts of comments are removed);
