Subject: [PATCH] http-push: fix xml_entities() string parsing overrun
Message-ID: <D7CBF77D2B9C1D4D8C5E528FBBB35D8B58EC70ECDA@LLE2K7-BE02.mitll.ad.local>

```
xml_entities() in http-push.c did not properly stop at the end of the string being examined, which would occasionally cause nonsense to be appended to escaped URL strings and result in failed DAV XML queries
