Hi

See http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2015/04/25/2 and
https://bitbucket.org/shlomif/perl-xml-libxml/commits/5962fd067580767777e94640b129ae8930a68a30/raw/

After a _clone() call unset options are not preserved, e.g.
expand_entities and external entities are processed.

Regards,
Salvatore
