  Hum ... there is some logic there, the definition of xmlChar would
have to be moved, the tree.h and parser.h and possibly a number of 
other header would have to include this. At the C level it would
be better to also split the code in a separate .c module.
  That's cleanup, it kind of make sense, the negative point is that
it will change the documentation URLs for those functions, and it's
quite a bit of work without immediate improvement for most users. But
if you want to look into it, why not !
