Does Googlebot care about valid HTML?
In this YouTube Video, Matt Cutts says that the crawler is built to deal with HTML syntax errors.
Google does not penalize you if you have invalid HTML.
Google places more emphasis on quality content not HTML syntax.
So I do not expect a faulty <head> tag to be the only reason for the site not being included. Given this error, perhaps there are other errors that may be blocking the bot, such as your robots.txt file, rewrite rules or browser detection code.
I would check the servers logs to see if Google is in fact visiting your site.
Then check your markup and use Fetch as GoogleBot to test the site.
