OK, but this information does not belong in the NEWS (only).
Further investigation reveals that the alternative keystrokes
may also be found buried at:
Help -> More Manuals -> All Other Manuals (Info) -> 
nXML Mode topic.

But given that "C-h m" says the keystroke is C-Return and
"C-h b" shows only "M-TAB" bound to completion-at-point, 
why would I expect to find something different in the Info
manual? The answer: I wouldn't. However, they have promised
to fix the documentation.

Now that I have reverted to my original xml-mode.elc, C-M-i
(and ESC TAB as mentioned by another poster) works.

This, at last, is the true solution: use C-M-i or <ESC><TAB>
as stated in the nXML Mode Info manual, i.e, the "nXML Mode"
topic in Help -> More Manuals -> All Other Manuals (Info).
In addition "C-h m" and "C-h b" should show this information 
when Emacs is in nXML mode.

Regards,
John Brown.
