Add the following line to any script: latex2html.pin  or html.perl
or an initialisation file.

    sub do_cmd_oldcontentsline { &do_cmd_contentsline(@_) }


In the next release it will be in  latex2html.pin .

No, that won't help.
It is better to load {html}  before {hyperref},
especially if you are using  pdfTeX also.
In this case, it is unnecessary to specify  hyperref explicitly,
since the code in  html.sty  detects that pdfTeX is the translation engine,
and loads  hyperref  anyway, along with further compatibility code.
If you want special options with hyperref, then use
 \PassOptionsToPackage  before the \usepackage{html} .


Hope this helps,

   this should no longer occur; you should get the numbers now.
