Right, which means the prolog is not the problem here -- the fact that
this is an illegal XML document is. :) 

Specifically, it's a namespaced doc with no namespace declarations.

Wendell,

The page that you copy pasted from says:

 "Example of text in a GML file:"

Note that this does not say that this is the *entire* file:
specifically, it is one *feature* in the file, not a file itself. It is
not valid XML nor valid GML.
