This is an issue with the bindings; the Expat version doesn't enter
into this.

I added the check that a string passed as the namespace_separator
would be either omitted, None, or of length 1. I don't understand why
you would want it to be of length 0 -- were you expecting parsing
without namespaces? Is there a reason to pass namespace_separator as
an empty string rather than None, or just omit it?
