SimpleXMLElement.__str__() returns empty #120

SimpleXMLELements prints (str()) as empty string, repr() is fine

Test above is with python 2.7.3 and pysimplesoap at rev 9e26ba790cfc

    SimpleXMLElement('<a></a>').__str__()
    --> u''
    SimpleXMLElement('<a></a>').__repr__()
    --> '<a/>'

You can close it actually, I think that it's a choice : __str__ gives the node 
content while __repr__ gives the node XML representation,
