Here's what I don't like about expat: it's stream-only, no other access
model (which is fine for loading large models, but for small
configuration files having to write a stream loader seems a little
heavy); there doesn't seem to be any good C++-wrapper. Here's what I
like about it: compactness; no dependencies; active community.

Here's what I don't like about libxml2: depends on glib. Here's what I
like about it: has stream and DOM interfaces; libxml++ seems to be
pretty useable; provides (optional) xslt processing (might be useful for
backwards compatibility transformations).
But I don't want to beat a dead horse here, I can live with expat.
