db5 inlineequation requires mediaobject child (generates a line break) instead of inlinemediaobject

Hi Chris,
Yes, that was my point.  This isn't a stylesheet bug, but a
problem with 
the DB5 content model for inlineequation.  It should be
inlinemediaobject, 
for which the stylesheet does *not* generate line breaks. 
Reporting it as 
a DocBook RFE will get it processed by the DocBook Technical
Committee, 
which is where all schema changes must be approved.
