The problem with this one seems to be that Xerces is passing 
"%SVGNamespace;" as the namespace URL for the root element, rather than 
"http://www.w3.org/svg/whatever". This looks like an unresolved 
parameter entity reference. Possibly it's a Xerces bug. I still need to 
look further. But it does still feel like there's a real bug here that 
XOM is warning you about.
