[XML-SIG] comments and -- in SAX

[Mike F Miller]

I've run into something in the SAX validation code that I'm not 
sure is entirely correct. Basically, I've got a double dash inside
of a comment, and SAX doesn't seem to like it at all. Is this legal
XML and SAX is legitimately complaining or am I doing something 
that's illegal in my XML comments?

Thanks,
