	"Danger Will Robinson, Danger"

	What do you expect to have happen for files that did NOT have ".xml"
somewhere in the name. If you only want to do this for *.xml you should
probably ask for that in the glob() call.

	Also, the standard library has functions for splitting file names
into prefix and extension...

	Provide the full traceback, so we can confirm what line produced the
error.
