The "<" character is invalid here, and the way its surrounding characters are 
placed. Not sure what should be there exactly, but the markup will at least 
be well-formed if you pull out the "i<way" text. It looks like it should 
really have "x" and "y" attributes like the other <nd/> elements. You might 
have lost a node.

That will make the XML you downloaded well-formed. Did you want that fixed or 
the tool itself? I can't help with pyrender right now because of time and 
because I've never looked at it. Consider filing a bug report if no-one 
answers here.

Good luck.
