The standard says [363:12]:

   A string that could be recognized as more than one delimiter will be
   considered the string of the most specific delimiter that it
   satisfies.

Suppose I have short reference delimiters "B&#RE;&#SPACE;" and
"&#SPACE;&#RE;B" (these meet the requirements of [467:17], though they
are deprecated according to [467:21]), which would the string
"&#SPACE;&#RE;&#SPACE;" be considered as?
