Agreed, every f*cking additional library dependency makes software
maintainance harder, and I absolutely don't see the point in using XML
for config data.

Well, if the library dependancy is a problem I could donate my own 
lightweight (450 lines of code) XML parser. It's pure C++, one class 
only, SAX like API (easy to use, no overhead), quite verbose on errors 
and maybe pretty fast (finite automata based). If anybody is interested, 
please contact me.

Btw. XML is not complicated. You don't have to use all the mumbo jumbo 
extensions (dtd, schema, namespace and what else) and can only use it as 
simple as html.
