    I would not say libxml2 and glib-2.0 are "very light set of depends",
    perhaps few, but not light.

    The Windows build of AbiWord does not usually [ever?] use libxml2 and
    well I'm just not looking forward to compiling glib-2.0, but maybe
    I'll be pleasently suprised and it won't be the pain I expect.
    (I am not volunteering to try on Windows, just stating an opinion.)
