It's true that placement of marker comments is inconsistent, and there are 
other places where the marker follows the `section` element or is missing. 
Maybe the best thing is to retract this pull request (as well as 
openjdk/jdk#5947) and have a more thorough look. 

As for breaking tools relying on the exact placement of these markers: That's 
possible and would be unfortunate, but if we can fix a problem with the output 
I think we should still do so.
