The check function of std.xml requires each XML document to begin with an XML
declaration <?xml ...
According to the specification
http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/REC-xml-20081126/#NT-prolog, however, the XML
declaration is optional!
The check function should not throw for well-formed XML documents like
    <Root/>

The following trivial change fixes the issue:
in function checkProlog replace
    checkXMLDecl(s);
with
    opt!(checkXMLDecl)(s);
(at line 2249 inD 2.047)

Then, the by-the-book implementation conforms to the XML specification.
