> but isn't that strange that it occurs even in comments? No. XML is defined to be a series of (unicode characters) whereas your file consists of a series of bytes. So the first thing (conceptually) that has to happen is that a) the system figures out what encoding you are usinmg and then (b) translates the sequence of bytes into a sequence of characters and then (c) parses that sequence of characters looking for XML markup. A real XML parser most likely interleaves these into a single pass, but logically they are distinct and if you have an encoding error (such as an illegal utf8 byte when the system thought it was reading utf8 (but you intended latin 1) then logically you get a fatal error after stage (b) and before the file can be parsed looking for comments (or any other markup).
