Of course, the XPath should be just '/files/file/*'. I simply forgot
to remove the text() node test. I want the string value here, not
individual text nodes. Both ->nodeValue and ->textContent work fine
for that purpose.

<?php
$dom = new DOMDocument;
$dom->load( $argv[1]);
$xpath = new DOMXPath( $dom);
$nodelist = $xpath->query( '/files/file/*');
$files = array();

if ( $nodelist ) {
  for ( $i = 0; $i < $nodelist->length; ) {
    $name = $nodelist->item($i++)->textContent; # works fine
    $size = $nodelist->item($i++)->nodeValue;   # also works fine
    $files[] = array( 'name' => $name, 'size' => $size);
  }
}
else {
  echo "nichts gefunden\n";
}
var_dump( $files);
