Mysterious MD5ification under very specific circumstances

I was building a markdown document today when my document suddenly went
blank. When I looked at the HTML source, I found that all my codeblocks had
been MD5ified. The following is a minimal document which reproduces the
error:
# Header #
<!-- There can be text here, but there doesn't have to be.
>> -->
This is a codeblock.
**Bold text** <!-- Another comment -->
In particular, there must be:
- A header
- A comment containing the sequence NEWLINE TAB followed by at least two
greater-than signs
- At least one codeblock
- Bold text
- Another comment at the end of the document.
Changing even the smallest detail in the markdown results in a correct HTML
document, as expected.
When I run this through markdown v.1.0.1, I get:
<h1>Header</h1>
<!--

**Bold text** <!-- Another comment -->
What on earth is going on here, and who do I report this bug to?
