No, the builder is fine. It just sits on top of SAX, and by default 
preserves all white space SAX gives it. Provided you're using a 
conformant SAX parser such as Xerces, then there's no issue. (Of 
course, a parser that does not properly handle white space such as 
Crimson can cause issues, but there's not much I can do about that.)
