It looks like it is the nxml parser which eats the white 
spaces. Thus I reassign this bug.

Upstream fixed this in the internal code copy with the 
following patch:
--- src/nxml_parser.c    (revision 1439)
+++ src/nxml_parser.c    (revision 1440)

Torsten, can you apply this patch and forward it to upstream?

Kind regards
Nico
