Sorry, if it was not clear. Mapnik has got three xml parsers to choose from (at compile time) : tinyxml, spirit and now libxml2. Only libxml2 based supports advanced features like entities. Mapnik is using XML parsers to load data/styles definition file, not actual osm data. > > For plain XML processing people should probably stick with MSXML > for the > time being.
