Hi Barry,

It usually hits an error in about 1~10 iterations on my laptop. I don't
know what triggers that, so it may be a probability problem.

Disabling xml-input won't help. I think I should use verbose output.

My locale settings is:

LANG=zh_CN.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=zh_CN.UTF-8:zh_TW.UTF-8:zh_HK.utf8:en_US.utf8
LC_CTYPE="zh_CN.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="zh_CN.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="zh_CN.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="zh_CN.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="zh_CN.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="zh_CN.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="zh_CN.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="zh_CN.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="zh_CN.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="zh_CN.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="zh_CN.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="zh_CN.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=
