jQote templates break build script

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create a new html file
2. Paste in the markup at http://jsfiddle.net/aaronsnoswell/PyucS
3. Run htmlcompressor on the markup file

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
htmlcompressor should skip over the <script type="text/x-jqote-template" 
id="template"></script> block as it isn't really javascript. Instead, 
htmlcompressor-1.4.3.jar will fail silently, reporting a success but the output 
file will be empty. htmlcompressor-1.5.2.jar throws an error. See the comment 
at https://github.com/h5bp/html5-boilerplate/issues/899#issuecomment-3272529 
for the error log.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Tested using htmlcompressor 1.4.3 and 1.5.2, on a Mac (Lion). Discovered this 
bug when using the html5 boilerplate with jQote templates (see the above github 
issue link).

Please provide any additional information below.
Feel free to contact me about the issue via github, email. I'm happy to 
contribute / help fix this (if I can!).

Edit: I've also tried it using the default JRE on Ubuntu Linux and can confirm 
it happens there too...

Same issue with the current 2.0 build and ICanHaz.  http://icanhazjs.com/ 

It uses the form: type="text/html which also shouldn't be treated as real 
javascript, but it is, throwing errors.

Thanks for the report, all I can suggest for now is wrapping script tags with 
<!--{{{--> <!--}}}--> skip comments.

Is there any way to handle this more gracefully? It's still coming up as an 
issue on the h5bp build script 
https://github.com/h5bp/ant-build-script/issues/30 and will likely continue to 
as more and more people use JS templating systems.

Sorry for the long response, this should be fixed now in 1.5.3 release.
