Strange indeed.

Earlier, I get an "internal error" message from the "CSS Validator", but
retrying with the same URL gave a normal report. Maybe there's something odd
in the software right now.

I can't trigger the warning quoted above even if I explicitly try it, by
adding
h1 { display: inline; }
(This could conceivably make a checker warn about properties that do not
apply to inline elements. Probably not very useful, but conceivable.)

The error message itself is listed in
http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/org/w3c/css/util/Messages.properties
but with no useful comment.
