SR is not a quantum theory.

Here is a comment from a paper by Franson who seems well published.
http://arxiv.org/find/quant-ph/1/au:+Franson_J/0/1/0/all/0/1

"Superluminal Generation of Entanglement"
http://arxiv.org/abs/0704.1468

"It is shown here that entanglement, mutual information, and optical
coherence can all be generated at two distant locations in
less time than it would take for light to travel between them."

Given that optical interference is a quantum phenomenon, we should not
expect MM experiments to necessarily support SR predictions.
