A web.config containing invalid xml leaves the web app in an irrecoverable
state. The error persists even after correcting the xml.

Test case:
==========

- create empty index.aspx
- create web.config containing:

     <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
     <configuration></configuration>

- start xsp2
- request http://localhost:8080  (=> empty page)
- remove "</configuration>" from web.config
- request http://localhost:8080  => error page

- add back "</configuration>" to web.config
- request http://localhost:8080  => still error page

The web app should be able to restart after the xml is valid again.
