I was trying to wrap libgda in python, which uses libxml. Therefore I
thought I could just include libxml_wrap.h (as can be done with
pygobject.h) but it had not the desired effect. First the header file
needs a change before the c-api can be called in the right way (without
linking to libxml2mod).
So at the moment providing libxml_wrap.h has not the desired effect.
