First you might mean "Special:ExportRDF".

Second, I guess you are using "InternetExplorer 6" or lower. In 
"InternetExplorer 7" and "Firefox 1.5" all working fine. I've currently not 
installed Opera or IE6, so I won't test this to. Also, the output seems to 
be fully correct to me, at least with the version http://ontoworld.org runs. 
Altova XML Spy's Parser (http://www.altova.com) also don't results into 
errors.

Anyway, I also can't find any rule on http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml/ or 
http://www.w3.org/XML/Schema which states, that the XML-Declaration must be 
the first line. Instead it just has to be before the <!DOCTYPE ... > 
Declaration and the Document-Elements.

So this seems to be a Browser-Bug for me...
