The ruby version reads:
          if entityName[-1] != ?;
            @token_queue << {:type => :ParseError, :data =>
"named-entity-without-semicolon"}
          end

I don't know ruby enough but that "!= ?" construct seems strange...
but it cannot be causing the bug.

the line after, the python version reads "if entityName[-1] != ';'"
while the ruby version reads "if char_stack[-1] ! ";""; could the bug
be here? That's the only difference I can see.

I don't have a ruby install to test this change, so I won't commit it.
And there's still the problem with the sanitizer...
