  Column doesn't work. Wrt the line number the value are the same so the
locator probably use xmlSAX2GetLineNumber() internally.
  xmllint get them correctly, the line information is extracted from 
ctxt->input->line and seems to work okay ...xmlSAX2GetLineNumber()
also return ctxt->input->line, so I would think your code doesn't call
xmlSAX2GetLineNumber() at the right time, or there is some uncommon 
parsing options being used which break line counting.
