Comment:

 Update: After some debugging, I determined the cause to be this data in
 postmeta:

 <wp:postmeta>
 <wp:meta_key>_utw_tags_0</wp:meta_key>
 <wp:meta_value>a:13:{i:0;O:8:"stdClass":1:{s:3:"tag";s:5:"album";}i:1;O:8:"stdClass":1:{s:3:"tag";s:5:"apple";}i:2;O:8:"stdClass":1:{s:3:"tag";s:3:"art";}i:3;O:8:"stdClass":1:{s:3:"tag";s:7:"artwork";}i:4;O:8:"stdClass":1:{s:3:"tag";s:11

 </wp:postmeta>


 That's an old Ultimate Tag Warrior entry I had never cleaned out. Removing
 all those allowed the importer to continue, albeit not without minor
 errors here and there.

 Still, this should get some error handling, I think.
