I think breaking compatibility here is not much of an issue since
the XmlPullParserException is usually constructed in the XmlPullParser only.

In my opinion, adding another exception would be too expensive. In my opion,
the exception is not veryusefull since you usually cannot resume anyway.

The functionality of the existing constructor can be replaced
by a corresponding create method inside the parser implementation
easily.

Best,
Stefan
