Hi,

This update seems to very rushed. Generated documentation is available 
in distfile as of 
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxml2/-/commit/10c0413044f6e051544c22a1b4223dda0845bda2 
and is also mentioned in release notes.
No CVEs are mention neither in commit message and no VuXML entry. 
There's also a memory leak ( 
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxml2/-/issues/1069 ) which is detected 
by the python unit tests but ours don't run since commit 
fc6c145ef01c3418d7db4e7be89310d3f6225171
Why isn't there an exp-run for such a high profile port?

Best regards,
Daniel
