The previous code works because html parsers are more forgiving than xml
parsers.

+ Please have a careful look at sections 16 and 16.2 of the Recommendation. If
+ you haven't specified an xsl:output method, and the first node is <html>, then
+ the HTML output method is used, not the XML output method. When the HTML output
+ method is used, the meta tag (among others) is not output with an end-tag, only
+ a start-tag. If IE 5.5 is displaying this as HTML, it will work. If it's
+ trying to display it as XML it will fail, as you've seen.
