Quoting Peter Eisentraut :
It would be nice to make XMLEXISTS work as in the standard, seeing how

At a minimum, I think it's fair to say

RHEL 5 ships with 2.6.26. I imagine that supporting it is very
desirable, regardless of its age, since that is unfortunately still the
latest version of RHEL.

Thanks for testing my patch Erik. It turns out I've got libxml2

I've been reading the SQL/XML standard and discovered that it defines a
function named XMLEXISTS that does exactly what the todo item
xpath_exists defines. My original patch named the function as per the
