innerHTML returning list elements with no end tag

When using innerHTML in IE6 - aside from the tags contained in the returned string being in uppercase - an unordered list will only have an ending list item tag on the last list element.

Does this happen in XHTML as well? For HTML, this shouldn't be a problem since the LI close tag is optional. (Except that it does cause a problem because the list contains whitespace: http://www.quirksmode.org/bugreports/archives/2006/05/White_space_character_added_to_text_in_lists.html )
