Summary: Unchecked 'Proper Conditional Section/PE Nesting' 

Initial Comment:
The validity constraint 'Proper Conditional Section/PE 
Nesting' is apparently not checked:

test.xml:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE root [
<!ENTITY % test SYSTEM "test.dtd">
%test;
]>

<root/>

test.dtd:
<!ENTITY % begin "<![">
<!ENTITY % bracket "[">
<!ENTITY % end "]]>">

%begin;INCLUDE[]]>
<![INCLUDE%bracket;]]>
<![INCLUDE[%end;

This is a validity constraint; see the XML 1.0
specification, section 3.4:

http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml#sec-condition-sect

Closing as Invalid, since this isn't a bug; Expat must not
implement this check.

If it is a validity constraint then Expat must not check it,
since Expat does not validate.

*sigh*, it seems I accidently submitted this before I had 
finished editing.  The version I'm using is:

xmlwf using expat_1.95.4
