Message:
Well it probably means that you haven't specified the good MW version in
your family file ?
def version(self, code):
return "1.11"
The XML is only used if MW version is >= 1.12 ...

Message:
I tried accessing index.php?title=Special:AllMessages&ot=xml, but XML
doesn't appear to be a valid choice for the output format. This is
MediaWiki 1.11.0, which seems to support only HTML and PHP as output
formats.

Daniel?
Have you checked your wiki messages?

Message:
And... it's not because you're looking from Spamprotectionttitle that this
message in particular is wrong: since ll messages are loaded at once, any
wrong message can trigger that behavior.

Message:
I know this bug =)
Can you double-check index.php?title=Special:AllMessages&ot=xml for us ?
I'm pretty sure that your browser will output the same error. The last time
I saw this bug, firefox was confused too.
Then, check the source of the page. I think that the first line will be an
empty line. If it is, the XML is non-standard. The first line should be
something like <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
Check your mediawiki extensions, one of them is, I think, inserting a new
line everytime that index.php is called. This is okay for HTML, but this is
wrong for XML. (To check which one is doing that, disable all extensions,
and activate them one by one, until the behavior is triggerred. Please
report the bugged extension so I can fix it in Mediawiki SVN, or file a bug
report to their authors...)

[[MediaWiki:Spamprotectiontitle]] contains only the default text:
Spam protection filter

Probably you want to escape the "undefined entity" by changing " " to
"&nbsp;" in the text on [[MediaWiki:Spamprotectiontitle]].

Message:
This is on our own MediaWiki site, running 1.11.0.
How can I provide you with the source text?

Message:
What site does this occur on? It could be a problem with the site's
formatting of the message, or it could be in the XML parser. We need to
see the source text to know which.
