[PATCH] update XmlSimple to 1.0.10

Reported by: nicksieger Assigned to: David
Priority: normal Milestone: 1.x
Component: ActiveSupport Version: edge
Severity: normal Keywords: xml xmlsimple
Cc: nicksieger@gmail.com

Description

The version of XmlSimple included in active_support/vendor contains a bug in its #node_to_text method that will cause any entities in an xml document to fail to be expanded when converting from xml to a hash. So

XmlSimple.xml_in "<doc><node>&amp;</node></doc>"

# => { "node" => &amp;? }

instead of

# => { "node" => &? }

This can affect data integrity with xml posts as well as ActiveResource, so an upgrade is recommended.
