Oh well. Thanks for catching this one.

Ack. New text:

      quoted-string  = DQUOTE *( qdtext / quoted-pair ) DQUOTE
      qdtext         = OWS / %x21 / %x23-5B / %x5D-7E / obs-text
                     ; OWS / <VCHAR except DQUOTE and "\"> / obs-text

      comment        = "(" *( ctext / quoted-pair / comment ) ")"
      ctext          = OWS / %x21-27 / %x2A-5B / %x5D-7E / obs-text
                     ; OWS / <VCHAR except "(", ")", and "\"> / obs-text
