Hi!
Thats because with short_open_tags on, you need to use: <?php echo('<?xml ... ?>'); ?>
It's a pretty small use case (that's a problem only if you have xml documents which has to have php code which has to be inlined) and as you see, can be easily handled. I think that should not make whole very useful syntax deprecated.
I think the parser should look ahead and check for something like : /<?(php|[\w]) (either <?php or <? + linebreaks/whitespace). Evert
