OK, we're on the same wavelength now. I suggest modifying the errata 
because the example is wrong. There's no way to make it right while 
keeping an ABNF that is consistent across parameters (so that it is 
possible to write a generic vCard parser).

To modify the errata, just file a new one, the AD will do the rest. ;)
