The compact attribute in 
<dl compact> 
  <dt> ...
  <dd>...
  ...
</dt>
is ignored, the text is displayed as if it were omitted:
<dl> 
  <dt> ...
  <dd>...
  ...
</dt>

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. look at the output from a compact definition list, e.g on the above page

Actual Results:  
I saw the incorrectly formatted text.

Expected Results:  
It should have placed the 'definition' on the same line as the 'term', when
possible.  Netscape correctly handles this.
