JCK : 6.0_b09
J2SE : FAIL - mustang b56
               : PASS - mustang b55
Platform[s] : all
switch/Mode : all

The default value of one of DOMConfiguration parameters is incorrect.

Test passed on the previous builds, because instance of DOMConfiguration, returned by LSSerializer.getDomConfig() method didn't contain "normalize-characters" parameter. Since mustang b56 DOMConfiguration appears to contain this parameter, but it's value by default is "false", while it should be "true" up to specification. Here is the quotation from the spec:
"normalize-characters" - This parameter is equivalent to the one defined by DOMConfiguration in [DOM Level 3 Core] . Unlike in the Core, the default value for this parameter is true. While DOM implementations are not required to support fully normalizing the characters in the document according to appendix E of [XML 1.1], this parameter must be activated by default if supported.
