Well, it has been two months now, and I'd not like to start patching old 
releases of libxml before a release. As it has been in sid for more 
than two months and there are no new bugs in it, maybe you could allow this 
package to go to testing.

So, please unblock package libxml-ruby version 0.8.3-1 . There are some 
diffs but the only important change is the bug fix.

Please mates on release team, don't make me start to have lots of 
diffs in my package for the whole lenny cicle, ok? :)

Cheers,
