I forgot to write that we are using libxml2 ver. 2.5.10 at this time. We 
cannot switch to the current version yet. "xmlCtxtResetPush" seems not 
to be existent in that version.

Well, we did not want to use the xmlReadxxx API since it is slower 
(isn't it still?). Could you think of a way to accompish this with 
version 2.5.10?
