Error description

The IBM StAX XMLStreamWriter might write a malformed
Windows-1251 encoded XML document on the second and subsequent
usages of the XMLStreamWriter API.

Correct output from first usage of the XMLStreamWriter:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="Windows-1251"?><env:Envelope
xmlns:env="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope"><env:Header>
</env:Header><env:Body><Object
xmlns="urn:abc-de:fg:v1.0">Message</Object></env:Body></env:Enve
lope>

Incorrect output from second usage of the XMLStreamWriter:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="Windows-1251"?>xenvtEnvelope
xmlns:env="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelopeD|xenvtHeader|
</envtHeader|xenvtBody|xObject
