This issue only happens to some people, some of the time, but it is
definitely still
[http://www.google.com/search?q=wordpress%20XML%20Parsing%20Error%3A%20XML%20or%20text%20declaration%20not%20at%20start%20of%20entity
alive and well] in the latest version of Wordpress. As mentioned, it is
due to extra whitespace being introduced by plugins and user edits--
something that the average user will probably never diagnose or fix on
their own.
Fortunately, there is a very easy patch that can be added to WordPress
that will get rid of this problem for good, for everyone. I've described
that patch here (before I knew there was a trac site that I could use):

Please consider merging this patch into the main WordPress codebase.
