I have used the validator to remove everything not related to the reported issue. The output now is this:
<!-- ---------------------------------------------------------- --> For all I can say this is a proper comment consisting of a number of dashes, which I think is correct as it should not matter what I put as comment, yet the validator complains about a lot of things which are just follow-ups of an early issue, which is incorrectly declared to be an error.
