Yes, probably.  The remaining 119 (sic) bytes in the bank weren't enough to 
complete parsing a complete <whatever> (depending on what is using 
StreamParser), so (i) these remaining bytes were moved to the start of the 
other bank, (ii) a read operation is scheduled to fill up the rest of this 
bank, and (iii) a (C++ language) exception is thrown, to tell the parsing 
code (that's using StreamParser) that the parsing got interrupted, and will 
get restarted later.
