AFAIK it's not a Mallard problem, but a XML one. You've to escape the
'<' and '>' entities when you use them literally, that is when you use
them outside of the scope of opening and closing tags.

http://www.htmlescape.net/escape_common.html

Else, the parser thinks you're opening a <Control> tag, and thus checks
for a </Control> closing tag before the </code> tag. Since it's not
there, it bails out because that XML is malformed.
