re: Failure to extract information using mini-XML v2.8

OK, I've added some details to minixml bug #502

It appears that there are two problems, of which one /might/ be my
misunderstanding of how the miniXML api is supposed to be used.

The primary problem seems to be that the
  MXML_TEXT_CALLBACK
(defined by miniXML for use in the mxmlLoad* functions) does /not/ actually
tell miniXML to recognize text elements. When replaced with an
explicit "this node is a MXML_TEXT type" callback, I can get text back from
the XML element nodes that /should have/ text.

Now, a secondary problem has cropped up. In an XML element that looks like
  <document>Hello, World</document>
with the element containing text only, and no intervening subordinate XML
elements at all, the mxmlGetText() call (when applied to the element,
loaded by mxmlLoadFile() with the explicit text callback) /only/ retrieves
the first non-blank text ("Hello,").
