<font size="2"><font face="Arial">Yes, you are right. I can reproduce
the problem. It seems that xmlsec/libxml do not like <br>
processing instruction on the root node level. If I place the same PI
node anywhere else<br>
in the document it is included in the output. <br>
<br>
Thanks for reporting the problem! I'll investigate the issue tonight.<br>
