Re: [xml] win32 threading enabled builds with mingw-w64 64bit?

[Jon <jon forums gmail com>]

Ignore; my `--without-sax1` config error was the cause of `xmlParseFile` and other symbols not being exported from the DLL.

Tweaking the config fixes the build. Sorry for the noise.

The artifacts appear to have been built correctly, but the test confirmation fails. The error does not occur when I use `--without-threads`.

From the linker error, it appears I've misconfigured the build, perhaps leaving out a critical define.

Before I spend too much more time spelunking, would you confirm that 2.9.1 can be build with `--with-threads=win32` and/or spot my configuration or build mistake below?
