I'm pretty sure XMLPULL can read processing instructions. You just 
have to use nextToken() instead of next().

The biggest problem with XMLPULL, IMNSHO, is that it does not 
correctly implement the XML 1.0 specification. It fails to make many 
well-formedness checks it is required to make, especially with regard 
to the internal DTD subset. It also does not apply default attribute 
values it is required to apply. And it never reads the external DTD 
subset.
