Catalog Export XML File has trailing rubbish

When I export a catalog using the Catalog Administration tool I am getting
rubbish past the ending XML tag. Here is a snippet.

(trimmed the beginning of the file)
<Description Value="Warm Water Tanks" language="en-US" />
</Category>
</Catalog>
</MSCommerceCatalogCollection2>der" language="da-DK" />
<Description Value="Warm Water Tanks" language="en-US" />
</Category>
</Catalog>
</MSCommerceCatalogCollection2>"??" language="ja-JP" />
</Property>
<Property name="OnHandQuantity" dataType="real" BuiltIn="1"
id="CatalogProperty64">
<DisplayName Value="Onhand Quantity" />
<DisplayName Value="Bestandsmenge" language="de-DE" />
<DisplayName Value="Onhand Quantity" language="en-US" />
<DisplayName Value="Quantité en stock" language="fr-FR" />
<DisplayName Value="????" language="ja-JP" />
</Property>
(trimmed to the end of the file)

So far I am getting around the problem by manually editting the export file.
It will happen fairly consistently but not for every catalog every time.

I just did some more testing. It appears that if the target file does not
exist when exporting then everything is fine. However it I am replacing a
file already on disk this is what produces the error.
