WXR export and Disqus

[eozyo]

It came to my attention that the WXR auto-generated file writes the <generator> tag outside the <rss> tag.

Because of this, Disqus doesn't automatically upload comments to their servers and gives the following error:

"XML syntax error: Extra content at the end of the document, line 19 column 1"

If you download the WXR file to your computer and you move the <generator> tag inside <rss> gets the issue fixed.

I cannot reproduce this. wp-admin/includes/export.php does use the function the_generator() outside of the <rss> tag, but since the type is "export" the generator string produced is within an XML comment. The <generator> tag is produced by the_generator() being hooked into the "rss2_head" action which is done within the <rss> tag.
