[libxml-devel] problem with version .98 on Mac OS X

[Charlie Savage]

Hey Robert, and everyone,

So this seems to be a common problem on OS X.  The switch to use 
htmlNewParserCtxt happened in the last release and was done:

* To make the html parser api consistent with the xml parser api
* Expose some of the more advanced features of libxml for developers 
that need them.

So I'd prefer to keep this feature if at all possible.

Somehow the bindings compile and link, but doesn't actually run.  There 
is a long discussion about it here:

http://rubyforge.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=23743&group_id=494&atid=1971

Joe's proposed solution is to change the way libxml-ruby builds on OS X 
to use --with-xml2-config.  I'm not sure if that change is checked into 
trunk or not, Joe?

Anyway, any help from the community to test this out and fix the problem 
would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Charlie
