Re: [Bug-gnubg] Crash in 64pt gnu vs gnu match

Looks like you two have busy while I was sleeping/recovering from a cold!

gthreads on windows was unreliable and had speed problems as well, I'm sure
we'll remove the native windows code at some point, it's not high priority though.

Øystein has replaced the last bit of code that uses libxml, I'll see if I can
check it in as it's one less (often messy) dependency.
