Initial Comment:
<Test>
<Row>&#60;OK&#62;</Row>
</Test>

For the test case above, I assume the result in 
void characterDataHandler(void *userData, const 
XML_Char *s, int len)
{
}

*s should be "&#60;OK&#62;"
but the result I got was "<"

Is it a bug or by design?

Thanks.

And what you got was probably "<OK>" (if my guessing for 60 
and 62 chars is correct), but in wide (16b, 2-bytes), not old, 
one-byte characters. So "<" 0 "O" 0 "K" 0 ">" 0 and trailing 
duble-0 for end-of-string-zero-char. Latter may be my faulty 
memory, for callback have probably just block and its width, 
not wide-character C-string :) ). Hoping it wasn't to messy.

According to section 4.4 in the XML specs
(XML Processor Treatment of Entities and References)
the behaviour of Expat appears to be correct.
