I'm was not asking about validity. Markup validity is directly dependent 
upon the DOCTYPE specified for the page.

What I'm trying to find out is specifically how IE 6 breaks (as in 
incorrectly renders the page) when using valid HTML 5 markup (including 
self-closing tags) with <!DOCTYPE html>. Again assume no HTML 5 only 
features only markup syntax.

I'm asking because I don't personally use any version of IE, much less 
IE 6. I'd really like to know if IE 6 actually has problems rending HTML 
5 markup.
