There is a new version - which I hope to release within a few weeks. In answer to your questions - one of the bugs with the old version related to a memory leak when entities appeared. Also, although it shouldn't segfault, all the XPath support assumes that your documents are well-formed, so you'll just get NULL returned in many cases if the documents aren't well-formed.
