list of reference results containing a problematic xml declaration

The attached list of reference results contains an XML declaration although the comparison method specified in the catalog is "Fragment". This seems to be a problem since automatically adding an artificial root node and canonicalizing the result is not possible.
Comment 1 Michael Kay 2009-07-29 17:47:22 UTC 
Taking the least course of resistance, I have changed these as requested.

However, surely "Fragment" means it is an XML external entity and it's easy to add a wrapper by using XML entity expansion? It seems to me that by not supporting an XML declaration in your test suite you're in danger of hitting encoding problems.

Actually, I'm not sure why these are listed as "Fragment" since most of them are well-formed XML. But I don't have time to investigate.
