Yeah, sure that's something I would like to add. I'm still pondering between keping the header mostly as-is or trying to refactor it as internal routines in xpath.c . But that doesn't touch the APIs and isn't security related so was slightly less urgent than everything else so far. I will definitely look at it :-) BTW do you have a git commit for 2.9.0 preparation in lxml now ? I may forward this to the packager for Fedora.
