Hi,

     The XML errors that you're getting typically mean there is a
problem with the docsent files such as an unescaped quotation mark
or other special character. You might try editing the .cluster file
so that only one docsent is included. Then edit that docsent to make
sure all special characters are escaped or removed. Normally, you
shouldn't have to do this with the GA3 cluster but there might be
some IRIX specific special characters we didn't account for.
