XQilla

I have spent some more time into this and eventually decided that I am
going to implement the writebom feature as an external program. This way I
can compile xqilla straight from source without having to mantain a patch
for each version which will ultimately cost me less effort.

Thanks for the support and this great software!

I will look into 1 and let you know.
I know about 2, but that's a requirement. Go figure why...

Thanks,

Your change looks ok. Maybe it's not being output because you aren't
serializing any document nodes? Some things to note:

1) Your code above only works for UTF-8 output - where as the
EventSerializer class handles lots of different encodings.
2) Using a BOM with UTF-8 output is basically pointless, since UTF-8
doesn't suffer from differing byte orders.
