Just tried out the nXML major mode and for me it works fine with 
`(auto-fill-mode 1)' in the mode hook. I have the following lines in
my .emacs init file:

(add-to-list 'load-path "/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/nxml-
mode-20041004")
(load "rng-auto.el")
(defun my-nxml-mode-hook ()
  (auto-fill-mode 1))
(add-hook 'nxml-mode-hook 'my-nxml-mode-hook)

Also consider refill-mode as it refills the paragraph even when you
insert/delete words in the middle of it. If you want to use it, change
the mode hook to:

(defun my-nxml-mode-hook ()
  (refill-mode 1))
