Well,
set watch file/class=major 
didn't show the file that caused the error,
but I have inserted in xmIO.c  a  printf  (around xmlFileOpen_real )
and I discovered the name of file causing the error: 
file:///etc/xml/catalog

So, you was right.

I have disabled the use of CATALOG by changing

#if 1 
#define LIBXML_CATALOG_ENABLED
#endif

in 

#if 0
#define LIBXML_CATALOG_ENABLED
#endif

in XMLVERSION.H
under [.include.libxml]

Now it works fine (for what I need).

Thank you to have pointed me to the right solution.
