Ah, sure enough.  I confess I don't understand the autogenerate code 
very well.

Speaking of which: I'd like to get python bindings for xmlValidateDtd 
working.  I can go ahead and put code in libxml.c but I thought I would 
first try to understand why it's being excluded from autogeneration.
I see that it's listed in doc/libxml2-api.xml, but does not appear in 
the generated libxml2-py.c.

I tried walking through generate.py but it's somewhat opaque....
Any pointers?

Thanks,
Brent
