I think this is a Xerces bug.  The DOM tree that's created doesn't contain
any Text nodes.  The AbstractDOMParser.characters method checks the condition

  else if (!fInDTD)

before creating Text nodes, and its value is always false; i.e., it always 
thinks it's processing the DTD.  It looks like AbstractDOMParser.startDTD is 
called (for the failing file), but the endDTD method is never called.
