+  Implementation notes:
+
+   We've seen a version of <libxml/xmlreader.h> that does not
+   define type 'xmlReaderTypes'.  The system claimed to have
+   Libxml2 2.6.16 installed, but another system that makes that
+   claim _does_ have 'xmlReaderTypes' defined, so I don't know what
+   version actually has the problem.
