How is this a problem exactly? Tidy does not claim to be a 
conforming XML processor, it's in fact Tidy's nature to 
accept illegal markup. For many instances of illegal markup 
Tidy silently corrects it. We have feature requests to be 
less silent about those, but I'm not sure there is anything 
here not working as advertized.

The invalid <?xml version="1.0"> declaration accepted
without the closing mark, the standard talks about '<?xml'
VersionInfo EncodingDecl? SDDecl? S? '?>'
