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.
