OK ... I committed the skeletons of the classes to subversion (after  
checking that it would at least all compile without errors, even  
though none of it works of course).
I also added a new NSXMLPrivate.h header for internal use by all the  
NSXML... files, it includes all the headers they need, and in  
particular has the libxml/libxslt header includes copied from GSXML.m  
so it should be easy to start implementing NSXMLNode.m as a wrapper  
round libxml2.
