I was quessing that it would've been a hash. Well not enough experience with perls objects :).

But there were the functions somewhere. Thanks. Well this gets more complicated. My text function is now like this. 
sub text (@) {
  # shift @_;
  if ($text && $_[1]=~/\S/) {
    # $UNIQ{$com}{$_[1]}++;
    # $i++;
    if ($str) {
      print XML::Parser::Expat::current_line($_[0]),",",XML::Parser::E
+xpat::current_column($_[0]),"\n";
      print "'$str','$_[1]'\n$com\n";exit;
    }
    $str .= $_[1];
  }
}

And the result of the run is this. 
$ zcat data/uniprot_sprot.xml.gz | ./get_sp_fields.pl
26745,17
'Involve','d in the presentation of foreign antigens to the immune system'
function
And the rows from xml lines 26744-26746 are. 
  <comment type="function">
    <text>Involved in the presentation of foreign antigens to the immune system</text>
  </comment>
So is there a bug in XML::Parser? Since the text section is split into two calls of subfunction text. Or am I missing something here...
