 * Line 427 of class.wp-publication-archive.php has a short PHP tag.
 * This causes “PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end”, but refers to the
   last line of the file, instead of the unexpected short tag which causes the parse
   error.
 * Please change line 427 to use the full PHP tag, since not all setups are configured
   to handle it.
