I had the same issue. Here’s an example that triggers this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<test1>
    TEST <test2>aaa</test2>
</test1>

or a more realistic example:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0" 
    xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
    <xsl:output method="xml" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes" />

    <xsl:template match="/">
        <file>
            <xsl:apply-templates />
        </file>
    </xsl:template>

    <xsl:template match="*">
        <xsl:message terminate="no">
            WARNING: Unmatched element: <xsl:value-of select="name()"/>
        </xsl:message>
        <xsl:apply-templates/>
    </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>
