Section 3.2.2.1 says:

   If the "qop" value is "auth" or "auth-int":

      request-digest  = <"> < KD ( H(A1),     unq(nonce-value)
                                          ":" nc-value
                                          ":" unq(cnonce-value)
                                          ":" unq(qop-value)
                                          ":" H(A2)
                                  ) <">

It should say:

   If the "qop" value is "auth" or "auth-int":

      request-digest  = <"> < KD ( H(A1),     unq(nonce-value)
                                          ":" nc-value
                                          ":" unq(cnonce-value)
                                          ":" unq(qop-value)
                                          ":" H(A2)
                                  ) > <">

Notes:

The ">" bracket is missing in the final line, closing the "<" bracket of the first line in "< KD ( H(A1)"...
