DV>   How did you point libxml2 to /usr/local/share/xml/catalog ?
  Simple. FreeBSD port contains patch to change default from
  `/etc/xml/catalog' to `/usr/local/share/xml/catalog', and from
  `/etc/sgml/catalog' to `/usr/local/share/sgml/catalog' because
  libxml2 and any XML/SGML stuff is not in base system, and FreeBSD never,
  ever install something ``third-party'' outside of /usr/local...

  Hmm... So, we (FreeBSD users) have xml/catalog in old format... It
  is not so good... I'll send bug report to FreeBSD team.

  But may be it is possible to do autodetection of file type in
  catalog loader?
