Yeah, I nicely added a segfault to xpath.c on the day whan Daniel was
releasing 2.6.25; and I realized it not until the release was already
pushed.
So, Daniel, thanks again for the extra trouble with releasing the lib
once again; I bet it let you grow a few extra gray hairs (if you have
any). Also thanks God (or whatever) that we don't work in the same room,
otherwise I would miss some limbs already :-)

Regards,

Kasimier
