  A couple of warnings:
    - first I just fixed in CVS another memory leak in xmlwriter.c
      (the string used for indentation was never freed)
    - also for the people who used testWriter.c from the example
      section should be warned that there was a lot of memory leaks
      in that example code, they are now fixed in the CVS and on-line
      version

Alfred, please check the section about memory management debugging in
libxml2: http://xmlsoft.org/xmlmem.html#Debugging
See how I modified http://xmlsoft.org/examples/testWriter.c to
log memory allocations (in an environment where libxml2 is configured
with memory debugging).

Daniel
