        Bonobo is emphaticly not compatible with libxml2, it should not
even compile for you, I don't quite know how you managed to get it to
build :-)

        Well; here is what we can do; abstract all remaining node 
manipulation functions into bonobo-ui-node.c and produce a
bonobo-ui-node2.c and compile it conditionaly.

        Either way it is extremely uncertain whether we will be using
libxml2 for this purpose since this may be re-written for Gnome 2.0 when  
libxml2 will start to be used.
  
        Thanks for the report,
  
        Regards,
  
                Michael.
