I have no idea how I came up with that diff last night - 
sorry for the false alarm.

that was the first bug, there are more. BTW there is no answer
yet whether the libxml2 people think this patch is correct.

how many of them do that instead of using precompiled libxml2? 
And how many of those also emerge kde4-l10n? I can only find 2
recipes depending on libxml2-src - both in old enterprise4

I only used libxml2-src for finding that bug.
With those debug options on, things like
extragear-graphics/kgraphicsviewer/index.docbook
make meinproc4 fail. And on Linux with those debug options, 
valgrind meinproc4 finds bugs. Both with my patch applied
to libxml2 - so there are more bugs in libxml2.
But with debug options off, everything is fine - meinproc4.exe 
and valgrind meinproc4

but now that you just disabled those options this should be
fixed, thanks!
