Yes, but it's normal.
The spec says that it is "equivalent" to p { color: green } and it is,
because of the cascading rules. If you turn the warnings on, you will have
a "redefinition warning" in that case, and in the end, it is equivalent to
p { color: green }.
In http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/syndata.html#parsing-errors
section "Unexpected end of string.", there is also an examples that lead
to a p { color: green ; color: green }
