Error on xml parsing when loading a ".config" file with an empty stylesheet

Hi guys,
this is my first appearance here so let me introduce myself. My name's Alexis Pojomovsky and I'm currently working in the Delphyne project, as part of the team from the external contractor Ekumen.

That being said, I'd like to report an issue we experimented when attempting to load a ".config" file that loads the system's default qt style.
To accomplish this, we found that we can use an empty stylesheet as part of the config file, but by doing that, we found that if we do this:

#!xml

...
  <stylesheet>
  </stylesheet>
...

the system fails with this: IOError: [Errno 11] Resource temporarily unavailable

On the other hand, if we add a comment line like this, the system works as expected:

#!xml

...
  <stylesheet>
     /* comment */
  </stylesheet>
...

It's not a big deal, and definitely does not prevent us from keep working, but we thought I'd be good to let you know about it (if you're not already aware of it).

FYI @clalancette
