bug#6267: 23.1; invalid XML in nested comments produced by comment-regio


From: Patrik Hägglund H
Subject: bug#6267: 23.1; invalid XML in nested comments produced by comment-region
Date: Tue, 25 May 2010 10:46:24 +0200

In xml mode, mark the following:
 
  <!-- foo -->
  <bar/>
 
and execute comment-region:
 
  <!-- <\!-- foo -\-> -->
  <!-- <bar/> -->
 
This is invalid XML because '--' is not allowed inside comments. See http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml/#sec-comments. (This is enforced by for example XML::Simple in perl 5.10.)
 
For example, as an alternative, the following is valid:
 
  <!-- <!-\- foo -\-> -->
  <!-- <bar/> -->
 
The offending code seems to be comment-quote-nested in newcomment.el. Should this code be changed, or the code for the xml mode, or both?
