Quoting Henri Sivonen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
The test case is wrong according to the current working draft, because the value of repeat-max is '0' in the test case and only positive integers are allowed values (and other values are ignored).

Why is 0 not a positive integer?

Because zero is neither positive nor negative.

Don't you have positive and negative 0's?

Only in floating point values as a technical detail--not in pure math or in two's complement digital integers.

Fair enough.
