- added test to catch old versions of Storable which lack locking support
- removed new-style loop which broke on 5.005_03
- suppress more uninitialised variable warnings
- fixed strict mode requiring ForceArray on output
- fixed warnings about uninitialised values
- fixed warnings when NormaliseSpace undefined
- added support for specifying ForceArray using regular expressions
- added check to escape_value to guard against undefined argument
- added NoIndent option
- integrated a patch
+ new facility for removing extra levels of indirection (using
the new 'GroupTags' option)
+ new facility for rolling the dreaded 'content' hash up into a
scalar if there are no keys left after array folding (using the
'-' prefix mode on the ContentKey option)
+ new facility for doing variable substitution in the XML; variables
can be defined in Perl (using the new 'Variables' option) or in
the XML document (using the new 'VarAttr' option)
- added 'NormaliseSpace' option for tidying up hash keys and other
text content if required
- option names are now case-insensitive and can include underscores
- XMLin() and XMLout() are now aliased to xml_in() and xml_out() when
called as methods or imported explicitly
- option names passed to XML::Simple->new() are now validated
Changes :
- fixed circular reference check which was incorrectly catching
'parallel' references (patch from Theo Lengyel)

- fixed bug whereby :strict mode required forcearray on
XMLout() (reported by Ville Skytta)
- first production release with SAX support
- added support for 'strict mode' using :strict import tag
- removed locking code (as it was incompatible with iThreads)
- integrated patch for test failures from Sean Campbell
- fixed stringification of references during folding (reported
by Trond Michelsen)
- fixed incompatability with Tie::IxHash (reported by
Venkataramana Mokkapati)
