Thomas Conway added the comment:

The W3 guys had some information that helps.

The DOM3 Core specification contains the following

  No lexical check is done on the content of a comment and it is
  therefore possible to have the character sequence "--"
  (double-hyphen) in the content, which is illegal in a comment
  per section 2.5 of [XML 1.0]. The presence of this character
  sequence must generate a fatal error during serialization.

This suggest that toxml is does not comply with DOM3 at any rate.

cheers,
Tom
