Description:
While parsing a resource at an include location (both parse=xml and 
parse=text), the XInclude processor is unable to detect whether the resource it 
was parsing contained malformed byte sequences [1]. This is because the 
IOException thrown by the Reader does not provide enough information to 
determine the cause of the exception. It may very well have been something else 
such as not being able to open an input stream. Instead of reporting a fatal 
error, the processor treats it as a resource error and then looks for a 
fallback. If a fallback exists the resulting stream will be malformed.

See Bug #27083, it's somewhat related to this problem. Although we cannot 
change the behaviour of Java's readers, we should at least catch malformed byte 
sequences with our own UTF8Reader and ASCIIReader and report them as with other 
well-formedness violations.
