Summary: Unitialized memory returned from XML_Parse

Initial Comment:
XML_Parse ends with |return result;|, but there's a case where result is left unitialized, namely if the call to processor on line 1483 returns XML_ERROR_NONE and ps_parsing has been set to XML_FINISHED. I'm attaching a patch that makes sure result is always initialized.
