As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

Yes, those are the options I'm using. As far as I can tell, when XML-INTO encountered a mapping error, it will abort the rest of mapping.
This is why IBM recommend that you never specify numerics as such in the target DS. If there is any chance that a non-numeric or mal-formed numeric value might be present.
Unless you originate the XML and can be certain that all numerics are indeed valid then you should define the target field as alpha and validate it your self - that way you can control the error and not have the parser die. Even if IBM were to fix your current problem there's still a possibility that there would be invalid characters in any numerics - would you want them to be set to zeros and the error not reported?
Another option would be to run a validator against the XML and perform an xslt transform to set the null entries to whatever default value you want.
