It seems indeed that libxml2 could be the problem.  I regularly execute
svn2cl and it worked on 11/09 and did not work at 14/09 => something
broke between these two dates.  And I see in libxml2 changelog:

libxml2 (2.7.4.dfsg-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * debian/libxml2.symbols: Force binaries that use versioned symbols to
    depend on version 2.7.4 at least.
  * parser.c: Fix a parsing problem with little data at startup.
    Cherry-picked from upstream git. Closes: #546254, #546488.

libxml2 (2.7.4.dfsg-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release.
  * Revert old change to entities.c.
  * debian/copyright: Change upstream url. Closes: #541082.
  * debian/libxml2.symbols: Change symbols file to use newly introduced
    symbol versioning
  * debian/rules: bump shlibs to current version.

It might well be 2.7.4.dfsg-1 which introduced this problem.

Re-assigning bug to libxml2.
