Well, yes, obviously.

Daniel, just because I prefer setting up XML catalogs myself does not
mean that I generally don't "reuse what other people debugged".

And since I use many obscure and also private XML languages I have no
choice other than writing catalogs or -entries myself; there is no
problem with that by the way.

No I did not ask you any questions about setting up my catalog, and I
won't. The thread was about compiling libxml.

The error message
  failed to load
  external entity "test/dtd/4.1.2/docbookx.dtd"
complained about a missing file under the libxml directory, it was not
clear if it expected a catalogued schema.

I did report those issues (all expcept the libz issue) in order to
provide useful feedback, in order to help you improve some spects of
your package. I could as well have given a damn which is what I will
do in the future, since giving feedback to you nearly always turns
into extremely unpleasurable experiences.
