I have, and I don't recommend it for serious xml use.  My effort was
for a constrained subset of xml where I controlled the schema and,
looking back on the experience, regret the waste of time (but to be
fair, libexpat was about the only free parser around and it is
difficult to use IMHO).

Libxml2 is not lightweight but it is powerful and trusted.
