I had the same problem recently.  I used the standard xml.dom.minidom 
module to parse the XML, and about a page of Python code to pretty-print 
it.  Unfortunately, I'm not able to release the code, but if you're 
familiar with how DOM works, you should be able to replicate it in under 
an hour.  If you're not familiar with DOM, it'll take you longer, but 
it'll also give you a chance to get familiar :-)

Have you tried DAGS for "xml pretty-print"?
