Summary: Stringing commands bypasses correct node creation

Initial Comment:
When I create something along the lines of:

foo << XML::Node.new('bar') << "bars contents"

The following is returned:

---------

<foo>
   <bar/>bars contents
</foo>

---------

However, this:

foo << bar = XML::Node.new('bar')
bar << "bars contents"

returns this:

---------

<foo>
   <bar>bars contents</bar>
</foo>

---------

These results have been sporadic at times, it seems.  When I create XML::Documents in the console, sometimes it works fine, sometimes it doesn't.  I have been unable to pinpoint a specific cause, but I am, however, having to rewrite a good bit of my code because invalid XML is being produced due to this bug.
