  Did that for libxml2-2.4.6 and libxslt-1.0.6 yesterday
(except using install module script)

  I think that for the APIs used for the Gnome platform, both libxml2
and libxslt can be considered to have a stable API. I will have to extend
some of those API by adding new entry points but for areas out of the
scope of the Gnome platform (like being able to put breakpoints in the
XSLT engine to allow to hook debuggers, adding support for more XSLT
extension functions in libexslt for example.)
