Just as a guess, it's not a valid XML 1.0 document (it's not), and we don't
have an XML 1.1 parser. XML 1.0 parsers can't parse XML 1.1 documents under any
circumstances, as far I can see.
We could change this bug into a RFE to start using an XML 1.1 parser, but I www.libexpat. org/dev/ roadmap. html for more information.
think that would depend upon support in a future version of the Expat parser
(XML 1.1 support isn't in Expat 1.2, the current stable version, nor is it
planned for Expat 2.0, which is in development, or event Expat 3.0). See
