built in entity

after checking with saxon, msxml and sablotron .65

why in a <xsl:if test=""/> does the greater than value '>' not throw an
error but '<' throws one ?
obviously the use of &gt; and &lt; works, no entity comments please...,

hmmmm
simple isnt it, wouldnt one expect an error using these unescaped ???? i
have always escaped these, so i have never tested in the past.

must be friday...
