And it frequently bitches about perfectly valid XML, and refuses to

I've had to pre-filter the incoming XML before it gets to EXPAT to
make it work. The other parser for C has such an obtrusive API it's
entirely not even usable. Both seem to be incomplete implementations.

I suspect the Java tools are the ones that are more mature.
