No issue there. They aren't well-formed, period. See the XML Rec:
[17] PITarget ::= Name - (('X' | 'x') ('M' | 'm') ('L' | 'l'))
This is not like attribute and element names, where names of that form
are just reserved.
I certainly would not sacrifice XML compatibility for that, so they have
to be excluded explicitly.
