Corrected URI:

http://www.example.com/example.com/example.org/does/not/exist/doesNotExist/works-mod.xml

As it happens, the test works by accident, because the document that IANA
serves in response to this URL is not well-formed XML (although it claims to be
XHTML, it has attributes with no surrounding quotes), so the XML parser barfs,
giving the same error code as if the document were truly not there.

An associated problem is that the document that IANA serves contains a
reference to the XHTML DTD on the W3C server, which creates operational
difficulties (though there are other tests in the suite that do this quite
legitimately, and implementations ought to be able to cope with it).

The trouble is, of course, that any HTTP URL is liable to be intercepted by
some proxy that takes it upon itself to return a "document not found" page that
might happen to be well-formed XML. So I would suggest using a URI with some
non-existent protocol.
