Comment(by redgecko):

 I know those tickets.
 However I think there were insufficient.
 Although WordPress declares 'XHTML 1.0 Transitional' at the DOCTYPE
 declaration, it doesn't follow W3C Recommendation.

 My attached patch changes the default output from 'html' into 'xhtml' in
 'language_attributes()' function.
 With this slight patch, you can enhance the compatibility with the
 recommendation.
