This is a compatability bug.  Most of us don't see this because we're using 
the PyXML version of pyexpat.

This new intern keyword arg for ParserCreate isn't even in the Python 2.2. 
release, so I think it should be removed, or that some better checking is done 
for it.

I hesitate to hacka at the problem, though, without having an idea what was in 
mind when the arg was added.
