The original summary for this bug was longer than 255 characters, and so it was truncated when Bugzilla was upgraded. The original summary was:

DOCTYPE parsing: move the setting of the correctness flag to the places that call the bogus doctype state, so that we can later enter that state without triggering the correctness flag change. This change does not change the black box behaviour of the spec, but it can affect existing implementations that are tracking the spec.
