  without history "make tests" (not make check) works fine here.
with history I just get this minimal regression:

## Catalog regression tests

  you should.

  no it always complete in less than a second for me even with --with-history

  xmllint --shell does not behave correctly with file input apparently
if readline is used.

I don't care much, the licence on the readline library is GPL, making it
incompatible with the default compilation of libxml2, so it's off by default.
However if someone care about it, they can debug and provide a patch for
xmllint, I will apply it.
