Bug Description
Firefox incorrectly renders a comment as text, but only when the doctype is specified. The output is this:
before first after first
before second <!-- -------
before third after third
similar comments between before / after first and third are hidden correctly.
The error is present in Firefox for Ubuntu 3.6.3, but also in Firefox for windows 3.5.8. Internet Explorer 6.0 does it correctly, and so does Chromium 5.0.375.70 (48679) Ubuntu.
