  if val != NULL, then this mean that the value should be stored,
i.e. the value from the value space should be stored in val. The problem
is that 1/ it's dependant on whitespace normalization 2/ one would
need to check that deallocation is done if needed 3/ this is not used
yet because the current code does not store PSVI values in the tree
(there is now placeholders, but I didn't had the need yet for this).
  In a nutshell, this part is unlikely to be used by any existing
code, but this would have to be done once PSVI stuff gets stored.
