Below are my findings for this bug.

After DOCTYPE parsing stack flows to void HTMLDocument::determineParseMode().
This decides the parse mode of the document and passes the same to the Style
objects which eventually decides the look and feel of the Object.

While in HTMLDocument::determineParseMode().  does not find the entry for the
given doctype using function 
     findDoctypeEntry(pubIDStr.data(), pubIDStr.length());

So the document parse mode is set as "setParseMode(AlmostStrict);" This inturn
affects the style object and changes the output.

Not sure if this is the real bug or expected behavior. Can somebody please
guide. if this is a valid bug i can try to fix.
