[XML-SIG] validating xml

The easiest solution probably is to install PyXML. That will give you
the xmlproc parser, which is a validating parser. The easiest way to
access it is either through SAX:

xml.sax.sax2exts.XMLValParserFactory.make_parser()

or by building a DOM tree with a validating parser:

xml.dom.ext.reader.Sax2.FromXml(data, validate=1)

Hope this helps,
