Does $ESCAPE work for other people?

When I run DOMPrint.pl from the samples directory, the
output comes out looking like (first couple of lines):

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8' ?>
<!DOCTYPE rss PUBLIC '-//Netscape Communications//DTD RSS 0.91//EN' >
<rss version="0.91">
.
.
.

Since the default setting of $ESCAPE is 1, shouldn't this output look
like:

&lt;?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8' ?&gt;
&lt;!DOCTYPE rss PUBLIC '-//Netscape Communications//DTD RSS 0.91//EN'
&gt;
&lt;rss version="0.91"&gt;

Hi Larry,

Looking at the code, $ESCAPE is used for escaping string values only,
so CDATA in attributes, or text between tags.

I don't even think the parser could handle something like: 
  &lt;?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8' ?&gt;

jas.

BTW, the XMLDecl that DOMPrint.pl produces is hard-coded. I checked in
a changed last night to CVS that fixes that, and I also tracked down
and stomped the bug that was causing the irritating warnings from
perlErrorHandler::DESTROY(). I'll cut 1.3.4 soon.
