Thanks, I already got it ok'ed and so on. Sometimes things are fast, 
since I'm the maintainer of our ruby release, I can push these things 
through pretty quickly usually.

So for others, I gave up on trying to get the libxml-ruby working as I 
wanted it. Its not too bad, as it does cleanup the stuff eventually.

The basis of the problem was that there was no way that I ofund in 
libxml-ruby to ensure the closing of the xml file. The only way to get 
it to be cleaned up was rely on the GC running, or force it to run (i.e. 
GC.start)
