Thanks for your suggestion, I forgot to mention that each XML-Message
might contain header-information, so I could have something like

<!DOCTYPE
STREET_REF SYSTEM "fti://repository/dtd/STREET_REF">
<FIRSTMESSAGE>...</FIRSTMESSAGE>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no" ?> <!DOCTYPE
STREET_REF SYSTEM "fti://repository/dtd/STREET_REF">
<SECONDMESSAGE>...</SECONDMESSAGE>

which would not lead to a valid XML-Message, because there are
<?xml...>- and <!DOCTYPE..>-elements somewhere in between...

We know, however, that every XML-Message starts on
a new line, so we might need to concatenate lines until we have a complete
XML-Message and then use that... Also kind of ugly and potentially
time-consuming, but I don't see any other way except to write a small
specialized XML-Grammar and this still wouldn't be able to parse
messages in encodings like UTF-16.
