Locale source file and '<' character...



Hi,
While implementing a locale source file parser I found the following
definition in hr_HR:

...
LC_TIME

abday   "<n><e><d>";"<p><o><n>";/
        "<t><o><r>";"<s><r><e>";/
        "<c<><e><t>";"<p><e><t>";/
        "<s><u><b>"
...

What bothers me is the following line:

        "<c<><e><t>";"<p><e><t>";/

In the above line, the '<' character is included in the symbolic name
"<c<>" but it is not escaped.  This also occurs in other locale source
files.  To follow the standards, shouldn't the '<' inside the symbolic
name be escaped, for example;

	<c/>>

Any information about this would be appreciated...
