If you would like someone to check it, I would be happy to review it.

If upstream do not version it, it may cause future problems if you do
Debian-specific soname versioning (consider what happens if upstream
enable versioning in 6 months). If you require shared libraries, I'm
sure Mike Sweet would consider adding support (have you asked?).
Otherwise, perhaps static only would be safest for now.

It looks quite cool.

I would certainly be interested. I may even be able to get
libgimpprint using it (instead of the customised form we have embedded
currently). I also have uses for it in other projects, where libxml2
is not suitable.
