XML is known to be a rather dangerous file format that requires enormous
care to be implemented correctly. In this case, someone perhaps forgot
that messages that get dumped into XML comments must be free of the
character sequence "--". The resulting XML file contains a syntax error.
Suggestions:
- remove the -- dash imitation between "set" and "see"
- make sure you have your time zone set correctly, that is
"date -u" must show Universal Time (GMT) and "date" must show
local time
- file a bug report to the author of the program that you belive
last wrote the above XML file and remind them of the SGML
comment syntax
