ZUGFeRD-PDF without XML includet

It seems to be due to GS 10.04.0 that the ZUGFeRD-XML is no longer included in the PDF. 

1)
example line:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\gs\gs10.04.0\bin\gswin32c.exe" --permit-file-read="C:\Program Files (x86)\gs\gs10.04.0\*";"d:\TEST\GS\*" -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -dPDFA=3 -sColorConversionStrategy=RGB -sZUGFeRDXMLFile=d:\TEST\GS\Beleg_V22_27628_20240923.xml -sZUGFeRDProfile="C:\Program Files (x86)\gs\gs10.04.0\iccprofiles\default_rgb.icc" -sZUGFeRDVersion=2p1 -sZUGFeRDConformanceLevel=EXTENDED -o d:\TEST\GS\Zugferd_Beleg_V22_27628_20240923.pdf "c:\Program Files (x86)\gs\gs10.04.0\lib\zugferd.ps" d:\TEST\GS\Beleg_V22_27628_20240923.pdf"

2)
The same cmd call works with gs version 10.3.1 (To check this, I copied the gswin32c.exe in version 10.3.1 into the path “C:\Program Files (x86)\gs\gs10.04.0\bin\gswin32c.exe” to be absolutely sure that there is no error in the call).

For anyone who reads this in future; this is an example of 'please don't guess at the problem'.

The output file in fact contains the XML (both the XML invoice *and* the ZuGFERD specific XML metadata) and with no other information I would simply have closed this bug report, pointing this out.

Fortunately the bug report this is marked as a duplicate of came in nearly simultaneously. That report doesn't state that the XML is missing (which it isn't) but sensibly points out that Acrobat can't find it.
