if all you get from libpython is xml, then so be it. still much better than 
writing the parser from scratch imo.

though if possible use the lib direclty and skip the overhead of creating + 
reading xml.

anyways, don't "map it into C++ AST", either create your own AST from the xml 
or just build the duchain on your own. Imo the former should work well.
