Is this exposed in Python?

I've tried:

  libxml2.SaxDefaultVersion(2)
  libxml2.createPushParser(handler, doc, len(doc), 'foo.xml')

but the parser exhibits the same behaviour.

Is there another way to create a SAX parser in libxml2's python binding, 
or attach a SAX handler to one created with  createMemoryParserCtxt() ?
