Not the wording, but the EBNF for CharData.  Ie. production [14] here

Yes.  Production [2] is the production used in both comments and CDATA
sections, but as far as I can tell, not in CharData.

If you think I'm right about this error, and if you think it is
important enough, I can put in a message to xml-editor w3 org 

If I'm wrong, there is no point in bothering them about it.
