Placeholder slips to HTML markup

[earshinov]

When in Markdown source an HTML comment contains Markdown's link markup, the resulting HTML contains link placeholder in place of the comment's text:

Example.md:

Please see <!-- [Example][1] -->

[1]: http://example.com/

Example.html (rendered with python-markdown 2.0.3):

<p>Please see <!-- �klzzwxh:0000� --></p>

Actually there are STX and EXT chars in the output, they are just not shown.

This has already been fixed in the current code and will be available in the next release (currently in alpha - see downloads).

>>> markdown.version
'2.1.0.alpha'
>>> markdown.markdown("Please see <!-- [Example][1] -->")
u'<p>Please see <!-- [Example][1] --></p>'

OK, sorry that I didn't test the latest version.
