Description Henri Sivonen 2010-04-22 14:26:18 UTC 
In the text added in rev 4803, the step
"Set node to the previous entry in the stack of open elements."
walks past the start of the stack when node is the root node.

Adjusting importance per discussion with Hixie.

Status: Accepted
Change Description: see diff given below
Rationale: Concurred with reporter's comments.

I don't think I've fixed this the way you did, but I'm not sure because I couldn't follow your code easily from a quick glance.
