I've never looked at the html2xml.py script so feel free to commit the
patch if you think it makes sense.

I haven't tested it with 1.7, basically since GNOME 2.6 uses Mozilla 1.6
and that is what is targetted. If you have a fix for building with both
1.6 and 1.7, feel free to commit it.

I hope to have some time soon to do some patch merging and perhaps even
fix a few things myself and release a new version soon.
