I would strongly suspect that this is related to Expat myself.  Here's why.

XML requires normalization of line-ened sequences to \n.  There are ways to 
encode \r\n so that you get it back; the easiest is:

BEGIN:VCARD
\n

I don't know anything about syncml, but if there's some way to encode binary 
data, that may be an option as well.
