As I mentionned in the bug description there are 2 issues:

- the hacks we have in place to switch encoding to utf-16 before parsing each
chunk are breaking the parsing with recent libxml2 (>= 2.7.3, afaics). There is
no link to libxml2 bugtracker along with those hacks.
- parsing a chunk will fail if no xml preamble is present. In doWrite I can
check the value of  m_sawFirstElement and insert the preamble if needed, would
that be a better solution?
