  Hum, sounds like xmlKeepBlanksDefaultValue is wrongly initialized to 0
on your Windows build while it should be 1 as properly compiled on Unix.
/**
 * xmlKeepBlanksDefaultValue:
 *
 * Global setting, indicate that the parser should keep all blanks

 */
int xmlKeepBlanksDefaultValue = 1;

see if your compiler miscompiled globals.c on Windows.
