Right.

Hm, is that true either? I don't see any sign of such a dependency
on Linux:

$ ldd /usr/lib64/libxml2.so.2.7.6
linux-vdso.so.1 => (0x00007fff98f6b000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib64/libdl.so.2 (0x000000377a600000)
libz.so.1 => /lib64/libz.so.1 (0x000000377ae00000)
libm.so.6 => /lib64/libm.so.6 (0x0000003779e00000)
libc.so.6 => /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x0000003779a00000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x0000003779600000)
