> In XMLEncoder.recordStatement(Statement), it's possible to pass in a null stat. This means there will be a NullPointerException on this code:
> 	private void recordStatement(Statement stat) {
> 		// deal with 'owner' property
> 		if (stat.getTarget() == owner && owner != null) {
> 			needOwner = true;
> 		}
> A workaround is to test for the null pointer explicitly:
> 	    if(null==stat) return;
