Actually there was a real problem with importing Tellico files,
the XML import was giving us data with trailing newlines. I've
been a bit more lenient with the import code, and can now import
files (not tested thoroughly though).

Partly fixed in SVN r1058.

Could do with a better error message; if we could recognize that
the input data wasn't books, we could say so.

Before I tested this with a tellico file that contained my vinyl
records (I know, a bit weird) and it reproduced.
Today I made a simple book collection in tellico and tried to
import that. That worked without problem, so I guess this is
a case of PEBKAC.

I can confirm this bug with Alexandria 0.6.3 on Ubuntu Gutsy.
