+Subtle differences between tarball and Subversion:
 
+  1) The tarball version includes the libxml2 (libexpat) development
+     libraries. The subversion checkout does not. It may be required

+     package tool. This may also require the following switch during
+     the configure operation: --with-libxml2=/usr.
