Basically this bug boils down to: we're now entering into a new DOM state that the previous parser never let us get to.  The old parser used to auto-close <dd> tags, but the HTML5 one doesn't.  Mozilla has some magic CSS which applies a -moz-margin-start for non-nested dds, and turns that margin into a :before { content "\A "; } in the nested case.  It's not entirely clear to me how that works.  But I expect it makes the spaces able to colapse?  And why those don't get collapsed when they're dd's are outside of dl's isn't clear to me either.

Basically I don't really understand the expected rendering of dd (we don't really have enough testing yet), so I feel unclear how this should be fixed.
