This seems superfluous, as any ebook designer worth his salt would just use the metadata section in the opf file for this purpose, but that is how it is done.

It now seems that something went awry in this process of the aggregator's adding the metadata.xml file to the package. At least that is our current working hypothesis.

Thanks for your help!
From what you just said, it sounds like they made a mistake in the filename of metadata.xml and named it metadatal.xml. Try renaming the file to the correct filename and see what happens.
