RE: [xml] LibXML 2.4.0 on Win32

["Yon Derek" <yond pobox com>]

I've made the change that causes all thos "inconsistent dll linkage"
warnings. Before the change libxslt wouldn't link correctly to libxml
and would crash. I didn't spend enough time to figure out how to both
silence the warnings and have working dll and I could live with
warnings. My point: it's easy to silence the warnings by reverting my
change but that wouldn't be good. It's probably possible to make it work
without warnings, just make sure that you know what you're doing.

Regards,
