Many thanks for your reply, Taco.

Sorry for not realizing that I was missing it: I already use
\startembeddedxtable to deal with XML.

The first time I tried to add table support to my environment for XML, I
cound’t make \startxtable work.

I wonder what triggers the error with a huge file.

Many thanks for your help,

Pablo
