It can be a simple example like this, but what's important is that we
see the exact bytes you have on disk for a file which breaks.

Also, does the xmlwf application also report the error for the file?

I think what Karl wants to know (and what I think would be more
helpful), is:

- how do you load data from the file?

- how to you initialize the parser instance?

= how do you pass the data into the parser?

This is where a code snippet that shows you use of Expat, and that
duplicates the behavior you're seeing in your application, would be
*really* helpful to help us figure out what's happening, so we can
help you.
