I can confirm that the DOMParser error document does not match Firefox. I doubt
that changing it is appropriate for the stabilization period, though.

As for the change in behavior from the previous month - it was actually a
bugfix in XPath. Since our error document is an XHTML one (which is apparently
different from Firefox), you need to use the XHTML namespaces in the XPath
expression:

function nsResolver(prefix) {
    if (prefix == "x")
        return "http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";
    return null;
}

var errorNode = (new XPathEvaluator()).evaluate("//x:parsererror//x:div", doc,
nsResolver).iterateNext();

Of course, the code above will cease to work when/if we fix the error document
to match Firefox.
