(cleaned up spacing for legibility)
markdown.py:
<p>
     this is a <a href="http://example.com/">**test**</a>
     this is a second <em></em><a href="http://example.com">test</ 
a><strong>
     reference </strong><a href="http://example.com/">test</a><em></em>
     reference <a href="http://example.com/">**test**</a>
</p>

Markdown.pl:
<p>
     this is a <a href="http://example.com/"><strong>test</strong></a>
     this is a second <strong><a href="http://example.com">test</a></ 
strong>
     reference <strong><a href="http://example.com/">test</a></strong>
     reference <a href="http://example.com/"><strong>test</strong></a>
</p>

markdown.py is clearly confused by the nested tags.
