Is the following path correct according to the grammar at
http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/paths.html#PathDataBNF ?  I guess the
grammar also needs to take into account the rule that "Superfluous
white space and separators such as commas can be eliminated"

i.e. is it legal for browsers to skip the space and comma between the
largeArcFlag and the sweepFlag because those values can only be 0 or
1?

  * Mozilla, Opera and IE9 allow this.
  * WebKit does not.

Thanks,
Jeff
