Validating handheld CSS

Hi there!

I am working on an XHTML page that uses different stylesheets for 
different media (using <link> tags with the media attribute set).

Whenever I validate the CSS I get a load of errors. I've narrowed it down 
to the stylesheet intended for handheld media. If I validate the other 
stylesheets individually they seem fine.

To the best of my knowledge my handheld CSS should be valid I have not 
used anything that is not in the CSS spec (or the CSS mobile profile for 
that matter!).

(You can check the page at http://nimbus-protocol.sourceforge.net/ 
yourself if you don't believe me)


It looks like I'm experiencing a bug that was reported a long time ago...

http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-validator-css/2003Oct/0012.html
http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=392

....except that I'm linking to my CSS using <link ... media="handheld" />
as opposed to @media handheld. Dunno if that makes any difference to the
validator.


Could someone please confirm that this is actually a bug in the validator 
and not me making some stupid mistake in my CSS. And if it is a bug does 
anyone know by when it is likely to be fixed (considering it was reported 
last October!)


Cheers!!
