[dokuwiki] Lists plug-in : PHP 4.4.3 vs. 5.2.1

Greetings all,
        Curious if anyone has used the lists plug-in and experienced it killing 
native lists format support.  I've run this plug-in for a couple of years on 
server using PHP 4.4.3.  We recently had to move to a new server running 5.2.1, 
which is the only difference I can find regarding DW install thus far.  
Suddenly our older pages using native DW list syntax are completely munged.  
The only apparent fix is either update them all to lists "<" syntax or disable 
lists, which munges the pages with lists syntax.
        Has anyone possibly had any experience with this?  Is there some simple 
fix to lists that's undocumented on the plug-in's page?  Any tips would be much 
appreciated as I really detest the idea of crawling and updating all of the 
pages, especially for nested lists.  I checked the lists syntax and it appears 
to be preg_replace which did get any changes between our PHP versions that I'm 
aware of, so I'm not sure if this issue is PHP related or some bug in lists.

Thanks,

Bobby
