Description:
------------
Under 5.2.6 and earlier version, the xml parser would correctly read in html entities (such as <) in the XML. In 5.2.8, these entities are being ignored

Reproduce code:
---------------
You can see the source for a simple test program here: http://outofthebloo.com/test/xmlparsertest.php.txt

Expected result:
----------------
Do a View Source on the result of the xmlparsertest.php program, and you should see this (see the portion toward the bottom near "This should be bold")

Please do not submit the same bug more than once. An existing
bug report already describes this very problem. Even if you feel
that your issue is somewhat different, the resolution is likely
to be the same. 

Thank you for your interest in PHP.
