 - [#603]: Fix a regression from [#581] that an XML comment or a processing
   instruction between a <!DOCTYPE> and the root element in the file brokes
   deserialization of structs by returning `DeError::ExpectedStart`
+- [#608]: Return a new error `Error::EmptyDocType` on empty doctype instead
+  of crashing because of a debug assertion.
