[issue1777] ElementTree/cElementTree findtext inconsistency

Fredrik Lundh added the comment:

Looks like the mechanisms used decide when to invoke the full
ElementPath machinery differs somewhat.  I've added this to the TODO
list for ET 1.3; in the meantime, my advice is "don't do that".

(adding a check for '.' to the PATHCHAR macro should fix this, I think.)
