    Summary: Parser reports bogus content when parsing
       Type: Bug

     Status: Unassigned
   Priority: Major

Environment: All platforms

Description:
When parsing the following document, the parser reports garbage characters.

<?xml version="1.0"?> 
<subject>Research [&#x1D538;]rticle</subject>

I traced this down to this function in XMLReader, starting on line 612:

inline bool XMLReader::isPlainContentChar(const XMLCh toCheck)
{
    return ((fgCharCharsTable[toCheck] & gPlainContentCharMask) != 0);
}

Apparently, for the character "]" (U+005D RIGHT SQUARE BRACKET), the flags in fgCharCharsTable indicate it's not plain content.  This causes the parser to misbehave badly, and deliver broken character data, including unpaired low surrogates.

When I used the debugger, and returned "true" from this function, rather than false, the parser delivered the correct character data.
