I had a hell of a time trying to make DDOC generate valid documentation.  
It has a lot of inconsistencies or just plain weird and non-uniform ways  
to treat some standard macros. I had to resort to define macros with  
invalid markup, and those, assembled together would end up creating valid  
HTML 4.01 Strict documents. Ironic, I know. Maybe is that I just don't  
understand well how DDOC works. Go figure.

Not to mention few weeks ago when I tried to generate valid XML/DocBook  
files. I just gave up after a couple of hours. It's impossible.  :(
