Here.

+      if (!(library = w32_delayed_load (libraries, Qlibxml2_dll)))

+         message ("%s", "libxml2 library not found");
+         return 0;

Every .el compiled is one instance of emacs (in batch mode) that fails
to find the library and outputs the message. I think the message is
not necessary (we don't warn if we don't find libpng3 or GnuTLS, for
example).

Use libxml-parse-(xml|html)-region.
