XHTML1.1 was updated in 2010 to add the lang attribute back. That is, the
following is valid XHTML 1.1:
<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">γάτα δαδὶ φυλῆς ὅταν</span>
See "Status of this document" in:
http://www.w3.org/TR/2010/REC-xhtml11-20101123/
Epubcheck Version 3.0b5 doesn't like this, it outputs:
ERROR: /__SNIP__: attribute "lang" not allowed here; expected attribute
"class", "dir", "id", "style", "title" or "xml:lang"
File __SNIP__ is declared as:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE html
PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
Expected: Valid
Actual: Invalid
