This is a well-known problem that has existed for quite a long time now: It 
was first reported by Thorsten Roskowetz on September 24th, 2003 (see 
http://lists.denveronline.net/lists/jdom-interest/2003-September/013476.html).

Thorsten already proposed the above patch (part 2 only) which was approved but 
never committed. Then, for some reason, in the next version of SAXHandler, 
flushCharacter went private hence disabling the patch but no other proper fix 
was ever proposed.

FYI, although I'm now running beta 10, I re-inject this patch into every new 
version of SAXHandler & JDOMResult !
