Note, that it's sort of broken by design. While there's a little functionality here not provided by python[xml], it's not very useful functionality. Just search for bugs on pyxml from nearly two years ago - there where quite a few in that time period, most of them either simply dropping the dep or providing minimal patches (like i.e. dev-java/javatoolkit).
Tests pass now. Closing.
