Subject: Bug 757711: heap-buffer-overflow in xmlFAParsePosCharGroup
 <https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=757711>

* xmlregexp.c:
(xmlFAParseCharRange): Only advance to the next character if
there is no error.  Advancing to the next character in case of
an error while parsing regexp leads to an out of bounds access.
