Actually the relevant text is a bit beyond that in 4.3.3
where it says
which presumably means that XML processors MUST accept
entities in UTF-8 with a byte order mark. But as that provision was only added
by erratum to later editions of the XML spec, it's not surprising that older
parsers don't accept it. People still using JDK 1.4 are always tripping over
this.
(I prefer it too when users raise bugs in a
product-specific forum, but it's actually quite useful that problems sometimes
get aired in public because issues like this affect the whole
community.)

Hi Group,
I should have replied to the group earlier as well.
I actually responded to Sebastian offline earlier, anyway I am
able to reproduce the error in XMLSpy when introducing a BOM at the beginning
of the file as I informed Sebastian.
.. which takes us to the following page
here,
http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-xml-20040204/#charsets
In
some cases, the customer is actually better off contacting the vendor of the
tool he's using for a specific case such as this, where the tool is giving him
an error he doesn't understand.
Best
Regards,

Tried it in XML Spy 2005 ! and it validates fine. Must be something wrong
with your input file.

I am using XMLSpy 2007! Maybe that's the hint
to my problem. So I will try to use a different validator and report if the
error occurs there as well later on. Thanks to you guys for the first!
