[xml] slashes and backslashes

["Stéphane Bidoul" <stephane bidoul softwareag com>]

Hi,

On Windows I frequently end up doing things like
xmllint --noent ..\../somepath/somefile.xml
(ie mixing / and \ in file names).

It used to work (in 2.5.7) but stopped working now that
I have recompiled libxml2 from a fresh CVS checkout.
It fails when the parsed file references other
external entities.

Did something change in that area recently?
