[microdc-devel] patch for escaped xml characters in filelist bug

[Yaohan Chen]

A few posts reported problems with remote files containing characters such as 
&. They were listed in XML escaped form, such as &, and the get file 
command sent to the remote appeared to also use the escaped form, and the 
remote would not be able to find the file. The following patch fixes these 
problems. In short, just add 

  xmlCtxtUseOptions(ctxt, XML_PARSE_NOENT);

before the xmlParseDocument(ctxt) lines of both filelist_xml_open and 
filelist_bzxml_open functions in src/xml_flist.c.
