[xml] [python] libxml2.HTML_PARSE_RECOVER raises AttributeError

["Dhiman, Vikas" <dhimanv deshaw com>]

Hi all,

A simple invocation with libxml2 python binding raises AttributeError.

+++++++++
> > python -c 'import libxml2; libxml2.HTML_PARSE_RECOVER' Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'HTML_PARSE_RECOVER'

Am I doing something wrong OR do we need to patch libxml2.py? In second case the patch should be:
