Description

With Saxon JS 2 in the browser (tested with Chrome 84), the JavaScript code

SaxonJS.XPath.evaluate(`parse-xml($xml)`, [], { params : { 'xml' : `<root><![CDATA[<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<a/>
<a/>]]></root>` }})

fails for me with

SaxonJS2.rt.js:548 Uncaught q {message: "Misplaced or malformed XML", stack: "Error↵    at new q (http://saxonica.com/saxon-js/d…S/SaxonJS2.rt.js:789:494)↵    at <anonymous>:1:15", name: "XError", code: "FODC0006"}

I think the parsing should work without giving any error.
