 Ok. I see. Now I have such code (BTW, all my code is multithreaded, but
 I wrap calls to lixbml2 with locks):

 AcureLock();
 xmlInitParser();
 xmldoc = xmlParseFile(xmlname);
 xmlCleanupParser();
 FreeLock();
 ...
 ...
 ...
 AcureLock();
 xmlFreeDoc(xmldoc);
 FreeLock();

 My malloc()/free() implementation detects many calls of free() with
 invalid pointers on second call of such code. Again, first document
 processed normal, and all other documents are processed badly: many
 invalid pointers to my free() implementation from xmlCleanupParser();

 And after that xmlFreeDoc(xmldoc) doesn't free some memory.
