3. Sometimes your browser could parse it, sometimes couldn't. Poorly, another browser just run well in parsing.

I'm working on the gd locale and having similar problems plus reports of them.
When I access http://www.gaidhlig.org.uk/ I get the following:
Mearachd ann am parsadh XML: taga air a dhroch cheangal. Dùil ri: </input>.
Àite: http://www.gaidhlig.org.uk/
Àireamh na loidhne 49, colbh 10:       </form>
---------^

When accessing http://www.thinkbroadband.com/:
Mearachd ann am parsadh XML: mearachd ann an làimhseachadh an iomraidh air bith iomallach
Àite: jar:file:///C:/Program%20Files/Namoroka/chrome/toolkit.jar!/content/global/netError.xhtml
Àireamh na loidhne 10, colbh 3:  %netErrorDTD;
--^

I have also had reports from one of my testers that she cannot access *any* site using the re-release with the following error message:
Mearachd ann am parsadh XML: mearachd ann an làimhseachadh an iomraidh air bith iomallach
Àite: jar:file:///C:/Programme/Namoroka/chrome/toolkit.jar!/content/global/netError.xhtml
Àireamh na loidhne 10, colbh 3:
  %netErrorDTD;
--^ 

Running XP Pro on Windows, Namoroka 3.6.5pre for gd locale.

You can also try to reproduce in Firefox 4 Beta 8 or later, there are many improvements in the new version, http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-beta.html
