RSS for Issues doesn't validate

I'm using SimplePie (as included within WordPress core) to consume an Issues RSS.

Both $item->the_content() and $item->the_description() return item title value (which, best I can tell, the summary is the same value).

After trying multiple things I finally decided to validate the feed here:

http://validator.w3.org/feed/

And that shows a couple of errors.

without the description, the feed is all but useless. Or is it I who is useless?
