Here is an update on this problem.

MSXML 3.0 SP10 (msxml3.dll 8.100.1043.0) and MSXML 6.0 SP2 (msxml6.dll
6.20.1076.0)

I've only found these on Server 2008 although I haven't checked an XP SP3
machine or  Vista SP1.

Both of these now call the Commit method on the IStream interface passed to
the transformNodeToObject method.  Previous versions did not do this.  The
Response object of ASP does not implement this method and throws an error
when asked to do so.

The work round is to create a Wrapping Implementation of IStream and absorb
the Commit call.
