I had forgotten that my XML file had IDREFs which were not satisfied,
and Xalan was the only processor (by default) to do a parse. I agree,
its silly of me, but in the circumstances it makes no difference.

But still, isnt it surprising that Xalan bothered to do a formal
parse, which produced errors, and then carried on regardless?
