Yes, but this is IMHO the most worrying point. So ctxt should only point 
to this structure, and reuse sometimes for a user provided ctxt doesn't 
work always. So the user provided context should be put in the parser 
context structure, behind the fields which cannot be changed for 
compatibility.

I will look more deeply into all this in quiter times. Perhaps there is a 
compatible solution. And there's always the possibilty of libxml3....
