Thanks, Simon.
Indeed if the previous critic reads forward to Figure 9, he'll see
the properly formatted XML PI in the example. I had fixed those two typos
in a final review but they didn't make it into what got pushed out
to the public website.
David Megginson quietly informed me the URL for SAX in the document
needed updating, too, so both corrections should be imminent.
Take care.

All right, already. Why is this worthy of a posting to XML-Dev rather than
a polite note to their Webmaster? Proving that you know more about XML
than Oracle and Netscape, however easy and gratifying that may be, doesn't
further the knowledge base of the XML community in any way that I at least
consider significant.
Could we help people and companies fix problems rather than broadcast
problems onto the largest screen possible? Pointing out problems like this
only makes XML's oddities seem like more of a barrier to 'proper'
development than they really are.
