I made a slight change to xmlParseTryOrFinish (and similarly 
htmlParseTryOrFinish) to change the conditions under which it merges 
consecutive calls to the character callback.

It seemed to be merging them even when I thought it shouldn't, e.g. if 
the user data or the function pointers to the handlers had changed 
between calls. So if I tried to parse the text "foo" with user data X, 
and then the text "bar" with user data Y, it seemed to queue them up and 
parse the whole lot ("foobar") at the end, when the user data was Y. 
This was bad because I wanted the user data to be X when "foo" was being 
parsed.

(It could be that I've misunderstood something, or am calling the 
function wrongly in some way; feel free to correct me if so.)
