When trying to parse the string `a&b`, the parser raises an UnboundLocalError:

{{{
>>> from html.parser import HTMLParser
>>> p = HTMLParser()
>>> p.feed('a&b')
>>> p.close()
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib/python3.3/html/parser.py", line 149, in close
    self.goahead(1)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.3/html/parser.py", line 252, in goahead
    if k <= i:
UnboundLocalError: local variable 'k' referenced before assignment
}}}

Granted, the HTML is invalid, but this error looks like it might have been an oversight.
