+/* This function will only be invoked if the internal logic of the
+ * parser has broken down.  It is used in two cases:
+ *
+ * 1: When the XML prolog has been finished.  At this point the
+ * processor (the parser level above these role handlers) should
+ * switch from prologProcessor to contentProcessor and reinitialise
+ * the handler function.
+ *
+ * 2: When an error has been detected (via common() below).  At this
+ * point again the processor should be switched to errorProcessor,
+ * which will never call a handler.
+ *
+ * The result of this is that error() can only be called if the
+ * processor switch failed to happen, which is an internal error and
+ * therefore we shouldn't be able to provoke it simply by using the
+ * library.  It is a necessary backstop, however, so we merely exclude
+ * it from the coverage statistics.
