text between elements ending with empty line or white spaces is trimmed. This is the test case that should pass:

import groovy.xml.*
def xml = new XmlParser().parseText("<a>x \n\t </a>")
assert "x \n\t " == xml.text()

Note, that XmlSlurper works fine:

import groovy.xml.*
def xml = new XmlSlurper().parseText("<a>x \n\t </a>")
assert "x \n\t " == xml.text()
