    <thetext>I&apos;m unhappy to see these tests results:
Failure.

The tests are correct per spec, but I think the V.nu behavior should be made correct, because so far we&apos;ve adhered to the principle that a premature EOF shouldn&apos;t cause tokens to be emitted if those tokens wouldn&apos;t be emitted if the file had been seen to completion.</thetext>

    <thetext>How is this different from:

   &lt;[EOF]     (vs &lt;p&gt;)
   &lt;/[EOF]    (vs &lt;/p&gt;)
   &amp;[EOF]     (vs &amp;lt;)

...?

Is the request here to change the CDATA section state to ignore one or two trailing &quot;[&quot;s if an EOF was seen? That seems odd. We only make EOF drop stuff if we would otherwise always have eventually returned a non-character token yet the end of the token had not been seen yet. In this case, first the ]]&gt; doesn&apos;t correspond to a token, and secondly if the next character adter &quot;]]&quot; is not &quot;&gt;&quot;, then the &quot;]]&quot; would be emitted as characters. So I&apos;m not sure that what you describe makes sense.</thetext>
