I meant I could not see version 5.1.2 on the section "PHP version" so I
just picked one of the listed when submitting bug report.

Description:
------------
When I parse an xml file containing <builder>Bill &amp; Joseph
Cook</builder> I get Joseph Cook as the value between these tags. It
drops anything that comes before &amp;. 

I am using php 5.1.2. I could see this on the section "PHP version"
above so I just picked one of the listed.

Reproduce code:
---------------
I am using a class:
class CluistraParser extends XML_Parser{
...
}

to do the parsing based on the parser.php file.

Expected result:
----------------
To get 'Bill & Joseph Cook' as the value for the tag <builder>.

Actual result:
--------------
I get 'Joseph Cook'. Anything before &amp; is dropped and the ampersand
does not appear.
