I have no patch tool yet on the W2K box, but I can prepare an XML
snippet for copy and paste, you can insert it where it fits.

Style counter, you start in column 10 with the "=" in column 30:
         newsgroups-line     = newsgroup-name
....5...10....5...20....5...30....5...40....5...50....5...60....5...70..

Strike <path-delimiter>, both memos use this only in prose. 

BTW, if you are annoyed how xml2rfc splits some ABNF terms
in prose at the hyphen write &nbhy; (= no break hyphen).

Integration test, I grab this stuff and paste it in the
still open ABNF parser form, result:  No errors, good.

You'll get more than four allegedly unused ABNF terms now,
because I added all terms in angle-brackets in the prose.
But that's as it should be, ignore it.
