"Valid" and "well-formed" have very specific distinct meanings in XML.  
(Note that "check" doesn't have any meaning there.)  We will eventually 
want a method to verify both the validity and the well-formedness.

I think that a function called xml_valid checks for well-formedness is 
an outright bug and needs to be fixed.
