OK. I'll investigate again after it's fixed. The 0 or whatever should
already be an enum constant that can be changed throughout.

I am very much against adding a "break-the-XML-spec" option. But, anyway,
let's worry about that after we make libxml++ XML-spec-compliant.

No, I think we probably need to ensure that the default is in effect,
restoring the existing setting afterwards. People may be using libxml
directly and that should not interfere with libxml++ or vice-versa. I think
I have done that in most places, and meant to do it in all places.
