A GDML file which cannot be parsed

Hello ROOTers,

I created a GDML file using the trial version of FASTRAD which can convert CAD STEP files to GDML files.
http://www.fastrad.net/

The attached files are those created by FASTRAD. But I cannot open MT3.gdml from TGeoManager.

$ root

root [0] TGeoManager::Import("MT3.gdml")
Info in <TGeoManager::Import>: Reading geometry from file: MT3.gdml
Error in <TXMLEngine::ParseFile>: XML syntax error at line 3

Error in <TGeoManager::Import>: Cannot open file (class TGeoManager*)0x0

MT3.gdml includes an external XML file, MT3_materials.xml, which is also attached. I suppose this inclusion is the reason of this parser error.

Is it possible to handle this kind of files in ROOT? I can open them when using Geant4.

Regards,
