Bug Description

There appears to be a problem with HTMLUnit and XPath (perhaps other DOMs as well). If you have an XPath which includes that node (a set result) and one of the nodes disappears, the program hangs.

This was seen on the nrage project where nodes on the display disappear as a result of JavaScript. Thus it isn't theoretical and it can be reproduce there. A general reproduction is needed to track down where the error occurs.
