BeautifulSoup use SGMLParser for all the versions <3.1. BeautifulSoup 
3.1 is supposed to be compatible with Python 3 and since SGMLParser is
gone it's now using HTMLParser, but it's not able to handle some things
anymore.

For more information:

(FWIW I tried BeautifulSoup 3.1 but it failed where BeautifulSoup 3.0.7
was working so I came back to 3.0.7)
