Summary:
Indexes in XPaths returned from full_path() are wrong

Detailed description 
The method child_index(), in file "rexml-nodepath.rb", is incorrectly returning 0-based indexes for XPath
elements. They should be 1-based. This causes the full_path() method to return paths that aren't valid.

I've included a patch that fixes the problem, a unit-test to test it, and a patch for test_scripts.rb that corrects
a bad XPath that takes advantage of the bug.

Cheers,
