  Well if configured with --with-minimum to reduce the size and if
doing a minimal wrapping to use kmalloc and related memory functions
this might work. Linus would certainly call this foolish (apparently
he really dislike XML) but that sounds a fun thing to attempt in a 
dynamically loaded module.
  You may want to look at expat for embeddeding too if libxml2 gives
troubles.
