it was by construction also in the XML format,
there is also a comment at line 343 of UniprotIO.py to address
this issue.
to parse this type of data an adapter for each db type should be written,
since each DB has different data, ancd can have different structurese.
also note that the Ensembl reference fields as recently undergone a
change of format in the XML file:

this happens in release 2010_10.
