@Chris, you are right, since I added the <?xml version="1.0"
encoding="UTF-8" ?> xmllint also prints it properly. But with "xmllint
--encode ascii wiki.xml" you get my describe behaviour, strange
default..

Anyway, so all characters are valid UTF-8. But what I found is that most
characters in that document aren't those they appear to be. For example
most y's aren't actually the ordinary Y (&#121;) but rather the "Latin
Capital Letter Y with hook" (&#435;). Similarily, some i's aren't
actually the ordinary I (&#105;), but the "Cyrillic Small Letter
Byelorussian-Ukrainian I" (&#1110). Hope that helps.

Title:
  xml:parse() - infinite loop

Status in Zorba - The XQuery Processor:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  "xmllint wiki.xml" reveals that for some reason the input file contains lots of numeric character references (cat and vim decode those automatically).
  Strangely it doesn't seem to be only one character but a combination of lines that provokes the behaviour (I tried removing some lines individually but couldn't reproduce after that).
