There seems to be a bug in `xml-parse-tag' when handling comments. To
reproduce it, create a buffer containing the following text on a single line:
<!-- hello --><outer><inner></inner></outer>
Trying to parse this using
M-: (xml-parse-region (point-min) (point-max))
will return:
((inner nil))
instead of:
((outer nil (inner nil)))
Inserting a space or newline after the end comment tag (-->) seems to
avoid this bug.
The patch below fixes the problem, but I'm not sure if it is the correct
fix (I just copied the code from the part that handles processing
instructions, that start with <?):

Hi Mark,
I don't know whether you still care about xml.el. If yes, yould you
please go through this bug report? For my eyes, the proposed patch from
Alex looks OK, but you might know it better.
Thanks, and best regards, Michael.

I've committed the patch to the trunk, so that it can be in the next
Emacs 24 pretest. Mark, please feel free to weigh in if you prefer a
different fix.

Thank you very much. My time has been consumed with my work for
Wikimedia.
