Jukka Zitting resolved TIKA-607.
--------------------------------

       Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version/s: 1.0
         Assignee: Jukka Zitting

I would suggest that you look at the org.apache.tika.Tika facade class instead 
of the old ParseUtils class. The Tika facade is a much cleaner and feature-rich 
collection of utility convenience methods.

In revision 1079871 I deprecated the ParseUtils class in favor of the Tika 
facade, and fixed the reported problem by making ParseUtils use the Tika facade 
under the hood.
