--> This bug is fixed in v3.4, which should be released today or next
monday.

--> In v3.3, the workaround is very simple: do not type
'file:/e:/temp/test.xml' by hand. That is, use one of the two file
selectors.

This bug can only happen on Windows, where filenames are case
insensitive. This causes problems with URLs (XXE is URL-based, not file
based) which are case sensitive.

If you had typed 'file:/E:/TEMP/test.xml' (i.e. with the correct case,
what ever it is), you would have had no problem at all.
