I just noticed I was testing against a locally installed patched build.
0.21.2-2 does indeed fix the closing comment tag, but it does still have
"--" within the comment, which is potentially problematic. I won't go
into the gory details, but W3 note that:
"Authors should avoid putting two or more adjacent hyphens inside
comments."
http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/intro/sgmltut.html#h-3.2.4
It seems in practice it doesn't cause problems with the browsers I
checked, so I think leaving this bug closed is appropriate as unrtf's
output no longer causes the body of the document to appear as a comment.
Cheers,
Olly
