Binary package hint: gedit

gedit 2.28.0-0ubuntu2 on Ubuntu 9.10 i386
This works as it should:

<html>
<script>
document.write('<br>');
var foo = 'bar';
</script>
</html>

With an added slash it does not work. The declaration of foo is already highlighted like HTML:

<html>
<script>
document.write('<br/>');
var foo = 'bar';
</script>
</html>

There is an issue with CSS, too. gedit does not highlight any CSS between STYLE tags when set to HTML mode.
