Oh, I don't get such huge diff, see the attachment.

I also checked diffs on tex4ht-html4.tex in tex4ht svn web frontend
and there weren't such big changes.

http://svn.gnu.org.ua/viewvc/tex4ht/trunk/lit/tex4ht-html4.tex?r1=133&view=log

but now I remember that in the past (I think last summer) something
caused compilation errors on tex4ht-html4.tex and more than 100 errors
happened, so the dvi file wasn't complete. but as compilation of other
files continued, it was easy to overlook that. I can't reproduce that
now, as compilation works fine.

it is: http://www.ctan.org/pkg/tex4ht
but it seems to be really old version with "obsolete" message, but
sometimes people try to install it, I am afraid
