the point here is from what i can see is that you try to parse WB data 
as WF data. each chunk itself will pass the parser correctly, but not 
concated to a single stream, since the parser assumes correctly that the 
document ends after the *first* <presence> element.

what you are looking for seems more to be xmlParseBalancedChunkMemory()
which can parse WB data - and therefore your chunk - correctly.
