There should be zero or more xitem() [with one pair of parens each]
followed by exactly one item()() [with two pairs of parens, the second
one being multiline).

Since I'm replying: I don't understand why `tt(foo) tt(bar) tt(baz)` is
spelled with three macros; I think`tt(foo bar baz)` would be fine… but
of course this is minor.
