Summary: Wrong number of childs (CHILD_NODELIST_LENGTH_ID)

Initial Comment:
I have 2 similar XMLs. I overwrite the differenceListener to catch and treat each case of differences (It allows mefor example  to use regexp if I want in field and remove the error). 

I have a parent node named xat2, and a childNode named shuttle. Everything not in shuttle isn't treated.  My problem is that for the Control XML the Diff tells me there is 3 child Node for shuttle, only 1 for the test XML. Idem for transport, and for partner it tells me 7 child for control instead of 3 (for test xml). 

I don't understand why there is this false number of child. Is it a bug or a mistake from myself ? 

Thank you for your help, 

Sébastien

Message:
In your test document shutle has three child nodes:

(1) a text node consisting of a newline and a few spaces
(2) the transport element
(3) a text node consisting of a newline and a few spaces

You probably want to ignore "ignorable whitespace", see
<http://xmlunit.sourceforge.net/userguide/html/ar01s02.html#Basic:%20Element%20Content%20Whitespace>
