Summary: Crash on valid XML

Initial Comment:
The start_tag method in xmlproc ocasionally crashes.

Note that this method calls skip_ws and then accesses
self.data[self.pos] without the safety of a try block. 
An
IndexError can occur, which should result in an
OutOfDataException, but does not.

A patch is attached.
