No, it's not a bug, it's a user error.

If you send a fragment of Java to a C compliler and manage to make a
small enough example that it actually works, then that does not mean
that in general if you send Java to a C complier and it gives an error
that it is a bug in the C complier.

IE does not support XHTML nor does it claim to support XHTML, so the
fact that it falls over when sent XHTML is working as designed. The fact
that it sometimes almost half works and doesn't always fall over is just
due to the fact that sometimes XHTML looks a bit liek HTML and IE's error
checking is sufficiently lax that it doesn't report the errors.
