You can compile mod_proxy_html against it with a simple #define.
See the comment in the source code, at about line 800 or 801
in the version that bombs out at 802.
FWIW I tried that -D and it still comlained about the three HTTP_* macros.

Huh?  HTTP_ macros?  Whare do they come from?

Doh, HTML_* (HTML_INVALID, HTML_DEPRECATED, HTML_REQUIRED)


Aha, I see.  They're new in mod_proxy_html 3.0, which is several
years later than the XML_ macros with the old-libxml2 support.

I guess it's time to declare very-old-libxml2 unsupported.

I also recollect there was a serious libxml2 bug that affected
mod_proxy_html and could cause it to spin and eat memory in
comment parsing.  It was fixed in IIRC libxml2-2.5.10,
so supporting earlier versions is really a Bad Thing.

Thanks for bringing that to my attention!
Guess I should release 3.1.  It's been ready and just
awaiting docs updates for a long time!
