>Description:
It seems the last change from libxml2 does not work as expected.

see thread in forums.freebsd.org
 http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=8965

Forum users have reported segfaults and other strange things after
applications are running a while.


Temporary workaround found by one user is to remove the following lines from patch-configure
which seems to work for others as well

 I cannot confirm, since I read the thread in freebsd forums before I've done some updates 
 and moved back to the old libxml2 version
