Yes, that's correct: it's broken because of the way you're
using it on Windows.  Linux does not have this issue; it's
a platform issue.

Yes, the code is likely not the problem; it's a platform-
specific build problem, most likely.

What is being suggested is that it is a pointer to the
wrong version of FILE struct for the runtime that is
being used by the libxml2 build you have.

Given that others can run the same code on Windows using
MSVC++, doesn't it seem at least possible that the 
difference is in how it's being built/linked?
