A child was removed from a node if an attempt was made
to replace it with itself.  The cause was the
comparison "if newChild is oldChild:" happening too
late in the function's code, so I moved it before the
"newChild.parentNode" check.

The patch applies to CVS python/dist/src checked out half an
hour ago.
