I believe this patch does what you suggest.

In _jsonInsertParserItem() I changed a switch/case to an if/else,
eliminating a supposedly unreachable default branch that, if reached,
would leak memory.

With this change, a jsonObject that is neither a JSON_HASH nor a 
JSON_ARRAY will be silently converted to a JSON_ARRAY by the call to
jsonObjectPush().
