The XPath object is callable, simply treat it as a function.

Does anyone know what the new code should be?  The code in question looks like:

             xpath = lxml.etree.XPath(target, namespaces=namespaces)
             root = lxml.etree.Element("root")
             try:
                 xpath.evaluate(root)

                 if model_etree and check_in_model_source:

                        [etc. etc.]

             except lxml.etree.XPathEvalError as exception:
                 if 'Undefined namespace prefix' in str(exception):
