issue with XSLT [0.8.x]

I'm having a weird issue with the XSLT module in nginx: after some random time, requesting an XSLT-transformed URL generates 500-errors. The errorlog tells me that the XML-document is not well formed, which it is.

It seems to be similar to an issue raised on the Russian maillinglist (http://www.lexa.ru/nginx-ru/msg25325.html ), although I'm not using FastCGI but just use static XML files as input for the XSLT-engine.

Running an strace or debugging with http_debug doesn't show anything weird as far as I can tell:

Does anyone have any idea what might be the issue? I've looked through the code of the module but nothing strikes me as obviously wrong.
