Research direction

Start by reproducing XML formatting with v0.29.0 on Ubuntu 20.04 or Debian Bullseye, then compare the result with v0.28.1, which is reported to work. Trace the extension's compatibility with older glibc and verify that formatting works on those systems without requiring a rollback.
