Description:
Based on: http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath#section-Text-Nodes

Shouldn't character data "test" from within "<![CDATA[test]]>" be returned in the following:

mysql> select ExtractValue('<tag1><![CDATA[test]]></tag1>','/tag1/');
+--------------------------------------------------------+
| ExtractValue('<tag1><![CDATA[test]]></tag1>','/tag1/') |
+--------------------------------------------------------+
|                                                        |
+--------------------------------------------------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
