Summary: sgmllib support for additional tag forms
Initial Comment:
MS-word generated HTML includes declaration
tags of the form:
<![if !supportEmptyParas]> <![endif]>
scattered throughout the body of an HTML
document.
The current sgmllib parse_declaration routine
rejects these as invalid syntax, where browsers
tolerate these embedded declarations.
This patch accepts these declaration forms.

This is the same as bug #505747.
These "tags" are not legal HTML in any form, but are some
Microsoft invention. It's not entirely clear what the right
thing to do is, but it is clear that we need to deal with
these in some different way.
Changed group to indicate that such changes can only go into
the trunk; feature changes in maintenance versions are not
allowed.

That patch looks wrong: You are changing what a tag is,
removing the underscore, however, underscores are allowed in
tag names.
Also, could you please generate the patch against the CVS
version of the code? Your patch doesn't apply for the
current code, which has changed significantly compared to
the version you appear to be using.
There is no way that this can go into 2.1 IMO.
