ser c7138f1656 REXML changes
* The main purpose for this change is to get a fix in for nasty bug in XPath.
  In the new code for the descendant-or-self axis, the document order code
  was calling the wrong method to do node comparisons, causing a terrible
  overhead that slowed the axis down to the point where it was unusable.
  This is a common axis, also known as '//', so this fix is critical.
* Using Element#text= on a non-Text, non-String argument caused an error.
  This has been changed so that the behavior is like puts() -- to_s() is
  called on the object first.
* Refactored the pretty-printing code a little.

# REXML is an XML parser for Ruby, in Ruby.
#
# URL: http://www.germane-software.com/software/rexml
# Author: Sean Russell <ser@germane-software.com>
# Version: 3.0.1
# Date: +2004/093
#
# Short Description:
# Why did I write REXML? At the time of this writing, there were already
# two XML parsers for Ruby. The first is a Ruby binding to a native XML
# parser. This is a fast parser, using proven technology. However,
# it isn't very portable. The second is a native Ruby implementation, but
# I didn't like its API very much. I wrote REXML for myself, so that I'd
# have an XML parser that had an intuitive API.
#
# API documentation can be downloaded from the REXML home page, or can
# be accessed online at http://www.germane-software.com/software/rexml_doc
# A tutorial is available in docs/tutorial.html
