Description nospam 2013-01-15 16:15:31 UTC
I can't seem to load a UTF-32 (UCS-4) XML document with libxml2.
Using version libxml2-2.9.0

Tried w/ & w/out BOM

xmllint from the same build reports an error too:
$ cat ./utf32.xml 
\ufffd\ufffd<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-32"?>
<Foo>
	Bar
</Foo>
$ xmllint ./utf32.xml 
./utf32.xml:1: parser error : Document is empty
^
./utf32.xml:1: parser error : Start tag expected, '<' not found
^

iconv provided the XML in UTF-8 fine:
$ iconv -f UTF-32 -t UTF-8 ./utf32.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-32"?>
<Foo>
	Bar
</Foo>
Comment 1 GNOME Infrastructure Team 2021-07-05 13:24:36 UTC
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org.
As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org
which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately
quite limited so not every ticket can get handled).

If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent
and supported software version, then please follow
  https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines
and create a new ticket at
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxml2/-/issues/

Thank you for your understanding and your help.
