Subject: Code to show the "validated" image doesn't validate ;))

When I validate a document as XHTML 1.1, I get the following code to insert
a "w3c xhtml" image, but when I insert this code, the page doesn't validate
anymore ! In fact, this code uses the "height" and "width" attributes, which
are deprecated in XHTML 1.1 ... This is easy to correct (use css instead of
attributes) but shouldnąt the validator always give correct code ? ;)

<a href="http://validator.w3.org/check/referer"><img
        src="http://www.w3.org/Icons/valid-xhtml11"
        alt="Valid XHTML 1.1!" height="31" width="88" /></a>
                                ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
                                    problem here
