Try doing:
(require 'xml)
(with-temp-buffer
(insert "<a>\n</a>\n")
(xml-parse-region 1 (point-max)))
With 21.4.1, this gives ((a nil)). With 22.0.50.1 (Debian version
1:20060824-1), it gives ((a nil "\n")).

In what way is that "broken"?

The result with 21.4.1 is correct. The one with 22.0.50.1 is broken.
Sorry for not being explicit.

I understood this part, but I don't know in what sense is the new
behavior broken. The text bracketed by <a> ... </a> is indeed "\n",
isn't it?

Hmm... yes, you're right. As the comments in xml.el say

Fine, then, I'm coding for the new interface now. What's the
canonical way to detect at runtime which interface is implemented?
Thanks,

A user on this mailing-list earlier suggested to check the output of
(with-temp-buffer
(insert "<a>\n</a>\n")
(xml-parse-region 1 (point-max)))
Stefan ;-P
PS: I'd recommend to replace 1 with (point-min), tho.
