It seems that you use only sax for svg backend.

This is really nice and moreover you could without much effort support both libxml2 and expat.

It will help on macos and windows to support it.

Consider it as a low priority whishlist.

We use libxml2 because the URL coder depends on xmlNanoFTP*() and xmlNanoHTTP*() which is not available in Expat. In addition we tried a quick port to the Expat SAX parser and it generated hundreds of compiler errors suggesting a nearly complete rewrite of the SVG coder to support Expat and libXML2.
