Please make sure to use http://validator.w3.org/nu/ directly instead of
http://validator.w3.org/

There are a number of known issues with the post-processing that
http://validator.w3.org does on the output from the HTML5 checker (validator.nu
backend). It's not within my purvey to fix those problems; I can only deal
directly with any problems that are reproducible at http://validator.w3.org/nu/

So if you can reproduce this problem at http://validator.w3.org/nu/ please got
ahead and reopen this bug.
