  MLNSCParser.cpp',
  957, '0xC0001392L', 'XML Writing Errors have occurred'
  Error       BIP5016E: The element with name '' and field type
  'unknownType' is not valid as the child of Root.XML or
  Root.XMLNSC.
  Each child of Root.XMLNSC must represent a valid XML construct
  for the top level of an XML document. The only field types that
  are valid in this position are XMLNSC.Comment or
  XMLNSC.ProcessingInstruction.
  Ensure that the message tree is structured correctly, and that
  each syntax element has a valid field type.
