[Bug 8270] New: W3C Validator throwing incorrect error messages

http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=8270

           Summary: W3C Validator throwing incorrect error messages
           Product: Validator
           Version: HEAD
          Platform: Macintosh
               URL: http://burningbird.net/svgarticle/example3.xhtml
        OS/Version: Mac System 9.x
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: check
        AssignedTo: dave.null@w3.org
        ReportedBy: shelleyp@burningbird.net
         QAContact: www-validator-cvs@w3.org


Ran the page given for the URL for the validator. Received the following>

This document uses an inconsistent DOCTYPE declaration. The Public Identifier
-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1 plus MathML 2.0 plus SVG 1.1//EN declares the XHTML 1.1
plus MathML 2.0 plus SVG 1.1 document type, but the associated System
Identifier http://www.w3.org/2002/04/xhtml-math-svg/xhtml-math-svg.dtd does not
match this document type.

The recommended System Identifier for XHTML 1.1 plus MathML 2.0 plus SVG 1.1 is
http://www.w3.org/2002/04/xhtml-math-svg/xhtml-math-svg-flat.dtd.

The recommended DTD is _not_ in the recommended list. The one I used is. 

And then all the rest of the SVG ended up as marked invalid.
