No, it is bug in your XML code. You must escape this character by entity
reference &lt;. If you have longer code with lots of < and &, you can
surround it by CDATA section:

        <para><screen><![CDATA[
                C:\bootcd1> mkisofs.exe -N -l -no-iso-translate
-relaxed-filenames -v -o C:\cd.iso disk1 
                C:\bootcd1> mkbootcd.exe C:\cd.iso - <
mkbootcd.txt]]></screen></para>  (<---line 150)
          </listitem>
        </orderedlist>
      </sect1>
