I fully expected new errors to be found, but not quite within 48 
hours :-)

Yes, you're right. In the effort to make the grammar explicitly 
case-insensitive we went too far. '@charset' is indeed not 
case-sensitive.

Strictly speaking, it is not an error. The grammar accepts more than 
what's correct CSS 2.1 anyway. E.g., it also accepts 'color: 1em'. But I 
agree the grammar is confusing and can easily be improved.
