After all, the markup validator is only a tool, not a test for absolute truth. I'm sure that at this point, you understand that even in the best of tools are bugs waiting to be found. With that said, I think you should leave them. You know that your pages are valid, even if the markup validator doesn't agree. Also I'm unsure of the number of people that actually care to check every page she/he runs across to ensure that the page really is valid as the icon on the page shows.
