Hi,

XPath parser of REXML 3.1.6 has a problem related white
space. We can meet the problem by function call with string
which starts with "\nALPHABET".

The following is patch and test case:

diff -ru rexml_3.1.6.orig/src/rexml/parsers/xpathparser.rb rexml_3.1.6/src/rexml/parsers/xpathparser.rb

end
#puts "BEFORE WITH '#{rest}'"
- rest = LocationPath(rest, n) if rest =~ /^[\/\.\@\[\w_*]/
+ rest = LocationPath(rest, n) if rest =~ /\A[\/\.\@\[\w_*]/
parsed.concat(n)
return rest
end
