Subject: replace.py error reading xml file

It seems that replace.py cannot read my xml file:

$ python replace.py -ns:0 -dotall -xml:cathopedia.it.xml "1" "\1"unicode test: triggers problem \#3081100
Reading XML dump...

My xml file where generated with the command

mysqldump --xml -ubackup -p\*\*\*\*\* --databases db > cathopedia.it.xml

The version is

$ mysqldump --version
mysqldump  Ver 10.13 Distrib 5.1.49, for debian-linux-gnu \(x86\_64\)

I'm wondering if I'm missing som mysqldump option, but I don't think so.

Actually, another script \(add\_text.py\) reads the xml file without any problem, and I could use it many times
