XCrySDen with exciting - error...

After having used exciting (and XCrySDen) for a while, I today tried to build it on a new system and got errors whenever I tried to use ex2xsf to load an exciting .xml file.
The root of this turned out to be a rogue line break which was being inserted at the top of the input.xsf file. Editing line 51 of xmlinput2xsf.xsl (found in $EXCITINGROOT/xml/inputfileconverter/ to remove the line break before 'CRYSTAL' solved this.
Hope this might be of use to someone else.
