There only seems to be one bug there and it's an implementation bug 
in a helper class, not an API bug. Consequently I'd like to suggest 
that you not call the new release SAX 2.0.1 since that implies (to 
me, at least) that the API has changed. That is, SAX means the 
general API, not a specific implementation of the API. Maybe SAX2 
second edition or SAX2 1.0.1 would make the distinction a tad 
clearer? But the real issue here is distinguishing between a new 
release of the implementation and a new release of the API.
