I can think of a couple. For example, validation. <br /> means
something different in HTML than it does in XHTML. In HTML, '/' closes
the tag and '>' is treated literally. Not a big problem, maybe, but
probably not what you meant.
The point, I think, isn't that you are or aren't likely to run into
any problems, but rather that for interoperability's sake you should
follow what the specs say - if not by the letter then at least in
spirit.
