But emitting this tag may run an inline script. And if it does document.write(), then the tokenizer will be in the wrong state when invoked reentrantly.

Check-in comment: Fix <script>document.write('...')</script> -- it turns out the tokeniser would have been in the wrong state when processing the '.'s. This is actually just fixing the cases I somehow missed in r5164. http://html5.org/tools/web-apps-tracker?from=6824&to=6825
