Ignore anything that points outside:

"Apply the Reference Validation algorithm as defined in [XMLDsig], by
taking each Reference element and exactly matching the value of the
URI attribute to the file name field of a file entry. Validate against
the matched file entry's data field (do not use the decompressed
representation)."

This will be addressed by Opera's security input... which should
hopefully be sent to the list today(?).
