I followed the discussion a little, and, although I'm currently not at all 
affected by it, I had to struggle in the past quite often with such issues 
and also had some compile-nightmares, so if it's possible I'd also vote to 
remove dependencies of hard-to-compile packages.

Btw., I noticed that lxml is also used in the z3c.formdemo tests, perhaps this 
is relevant, too?

Best Regards,
