It's a bug in Embperl 2.0b1. Goto Embperl/Syntax.pm and find the following
lines near the end of the file and comment them all out. They aren't
necessary in 2.0b1.
'HTML Comment' => {
'text' => '<!--',
'end' => '-->',
},
The bug which cause pages not to finish with escmode = 1 is also fixed in
1.3.0 and 1.3.1
