Thanks for finding the bug.
But I prefer to change SixxReadStream>>parseStream:
instead of SixxReadStream>>initialize, because it already has a guard
clause.

So the #parseStream: will be:
parseStream: aStream
     | root |
     (aStream isNil or: [aStream size = 0]) "OLD: aStream isNil"
           ifTrue: [^ nil].
     root := SixxXmlUtil parseXml: aStream.
     self checkSixxElement: root.
     ^ SixxXmlUtil elementsFrom: root

I will apply this fix and release the repackaged version soon.

Cheers,
