I just downloaded the sgml-mode.el from cvs
(http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/emacs/emacs/lisp/)
and saw that this was fixed in this way:

(defvar sgml-font-lock-syntactic-keywords
  ;; Use the `b' style of comments to avoid interference with the -- ... --
  ;; comments recognized when `sgml-specials' includes ?-.
  ;; FIXME: beware of <!--> blabla <!--> !!
  '(("\\(<\\)!--" (1 "< b"))
    ("--[ \t\n]*\\(>\\)" (1 "> b")))
  "Syntactic keywords for `sgml-mode'.")

* textmodes/sgml-mode.el (sgml-font-lock-keywords-1): Ignore comments.
        (sgml-font-lock-keywords-2): Use `eval'.  Moved from sgml-mode-common.
        (sgml-font-lock-syntactic-keywords): New var.
        (sgml-mode-common): Drop the two args.
        Don't make buffer-local variables that aren't used.
        Don't set sgml-font-lock-keywords-2 now that it uses `eval instead.
        Don't set `before-string' props from sgml-display-text.
        (sgml-mode): Use define-derived-mode.
        (sgml-tags-invisible): Use sgml-display-text.
        (sgml-quote): New command.
        (html-tag-alist): Add args for `span'.
        (html-mode): Use define-derived-mode.
        Set sgml-display-text and sgml-tag-face-alist.

Stefan told me about this but I forgot it :-/
