If you can find some pattern to the problem that an update to the  
libxml2 plugin would fix let me know and I'll add it.

I did release an update recently that dealt with the libxml2 version  
was 2.7.3 but the PHP version was lower than 5.2.9.  If you find  
yourself in that situation be sure to try out the new version of the  
plugin (0.2.2).
