Yes, `newsticker-show-news' is autoloaded in newst-reader.el, which
(require 'newsticker-backend) which (require 'xml).

But for some reasons, unless you explicitely (require 'newsticker)
before M-x newsticker-show-news', functions from xml.el are not loaded.

I found this at the end of newst-reader.el:

,----
| (provide 'newsticker-backend)
| 
| ;; arch-tag: 0e37b658-56e9-49ab-90f9-f2df57e1a659
| ;;; newsticker-backend.el ends here
| 
| (provide 'newst-backend)
| 
| ;;; newst-backend.el ends here
`----

Maybe the two (provide ...) are conflicting?
