I'm slightly in two minds about whether this is the right fix, or whether we should be changing the way errors are rendered (so that they aren't HTML lists in this case). The latter change is a lot more intrusive and these are helper methods anyway, so I've gone with the patch from Chris, but it may not be universally loved.

(In [5518]) Fixed #4527 -- Changed the way errors are displayed in Form.as_p() to avoid
invalid XHTML constructs. Based on a patch from SmileyChris.
