  Your document is a correct XML-1.0 document. The parser will not
raise a well formed error. It probably should raise a validity error
and that may be a bug but it depends on the DOCTYPE since it's unlikely
taht an "xmlns:" attribute was defined in the SVG DTD. Please check this
first and log the bug in bugzilla
