On Windows, malloc hooks can be called after the final call to xmlCleanupParser in various tests. This means that xmlMemMutex can still be accessed if memory debugging is enabled, so the mutex should not be cleaned. This also means that tests may report spurious memory leaks on Windows. The old implementation avoided the issue by keeping track of all global state objects in a doubly linked list, so they could be cleaned during xmlCleanupParser. But as far as I can tell all memory will be freed eventually, so this is mostly an issue with our test suite.
Module libxml2-python
=====================
This is the libxml2 python module, providing access to the
libxml2 and libxslt (if available) libraries. For general
informationss on those XML and XSLT libraries check their
web pages at:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxml2/-/wikis/home
and
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxslt/-/wikis/home
The latest version of the sources for this module and the
associated libraries can be found at:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxml2/-/releases
Binaries packages of the libxml2 and libxslt libraries can
be found either on the FTP site for Linux, from external
sources linked from the web pages, or as part of your set of
packages provided with your operating system.
NOTE:
this module distribution is not the primary distribution
of the libxml2 and libxslt Python binding code, but as
the Python way of packaging those for non-Linux systems.
The main sources are the libxml2 and libxslt tar.gz found on
the site. One side effect is that the official RPM packages for
those modules are not generated from the libxml2-python
distributions but as part of the normal RPM packaging of
those two libraries.
The RPM packages can be found at:

http://rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/search.php?query=libxslt-python
