The sgml parser
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/htmltools-1.10/lib/html/sgml-parser.rb
does not correctly handle character references. Yahoo sometimes
generates a character reference that looks like "'". Firefox
displays this as a single quote. sgml-parser.rb raises an exception.

Possible fix: In handle_charref, strip leading zeroes from 'name'
prior to calling 'Integer'.
