Hi Thomas, thanks for the bug report. Could you please explain a bit more about the conditions in which the warnings raised? I have been trying the examples of XML generation at [1] and all of them worked without problems and without noticing any warning.
[1] http://pear.php.net/manual/en/package.xml.xml-serializer.intro.php As you point out, php-xml-serializer can be used to produce a xml document, this is done with the 'serialize' method. If any text is thrown while outputing the xml document the package would be certainly unusable for most users, because the generated document could be at least not well formed. But the warnings that you found are refering to code in the Unserialize.php file, how are you getting them?
