+Subject: [PATCH] Fix XPointer paths beginning with range-to
+
+The old code would invoke the broken xmlXPtrRangeToFunction. range-to
+isn't really a function but a special kind of location step. Remove
+this function and always handle range-to in the XPath code.
+
+The old xmlXPtrRangeToFunction could also be abused to trigger a
+use-after-free error with the potential for remote code execution.
+
+Found with afl-fuzz.
+
+Fixes CVE-2016-5131.
