Sax buckets are actually not parser specific. I have no intention on being multi parser, but I did not change them much when migrating from expat to libxml2. I use apache memory for them for two reasons: 1. It is easy to avoid leaks, because apache has memory allocations that will automatically be freed when the request is done and 2. I know how to use it. So I will change my code so that xmlGcMemSetup is called safely. There is however one thing that worries me. If I have to take care for libxml2 to not free memory passed into sax callbacks, this probably means that on the other end I am leaking memory. Does libxml2 expect the sax callbacks to take memory ownership?
