It looks like all the calls to xmlAddChild() need to be deferred until
we have the name attributes of the respective entities. We could
either build each layer of the tree up as a list, sort, and then
insert in order, or we could try to do it in place with
xmlAdd{Next,Prev}Sibling().
If there are no sneaky timestamps, then that sounds like the two
primary cases. Anyone feel up to a patch?
