The current web-apps draft:

| For styling languages that consist of pure text, user agents must use
| a concatenation of the contents of all the text nodes and CDATA nodes
| that are direct children of the style  element (ignoring any other
| nodes such as comments or elements), in tree order.

That definition is unclear in the case of:
http://annevankesteren.nl/test/xml/xhtml/style-element/005

<style>
   p { background:red }
   <style> p { background:lime } </style>
</style>

It says the content of nested elements should be ignored; but since it 
is a style element itself, it's not being ignored by Mozilla.
