where '#' is the issue or ticket number.

* Fixes ticket:3 (Issue38 in Roundup.) However, this needs further testing.
* Fixed a couple of bugs in the SAX2 parser, plus a bunch of other changes I
  don't remember.
* More XPath ordering testing added
* Fixed the documentation WRT the raw mode of text nodes (ticket:4)
* Fixes roundup issue 43: substring-after bug.
  See: http://www.germane-software.com/cgi-bin/roundup/rexml/issue43
* Fixed issue44, Element#xpath
* Patch submitted by an anonymous doner to allow parsing of Tempfiles.  I was
  hoping that, by now, that whole Source thing would have been changed to use
  duck typing and avoid this sort of issue... but in the meantime, the patch
  has been applied.
* Fixes ticket:30, XPath default namespace bug.  The fix was provided
  by Lucas Nussbaum.
* Aliases #size to #length, as per zdennis's request.
* Fixes typo from previous commit
* Fixes ticket #32 (and adds a unit test)
* Merges a user-contributed patch for issue #40
* Changes Date, Version, and Copyright to upper case, to avoid conflicts with
  the Date class.
* Minor, yet incomplete, documentation changes.
* Resolves issue #34 (SAX parser change makes it impossible to parse IO feeds.)
* Moves parser.source.position() to parser.position()
* Improves the build script (less work for me to package a distribution)
