Ah, yes indirectly when it validates the data/gmlasconf.xml file against 
data/gmlasconf.xsd, 
since CPLValidateXML() uses libxml2 underneath to do that (it could actually 
have an 
alternate implementation using Xerces-C validation functionnalities.)

Same thing, OGR VRT, optionnaly, uses libxml2 to validate the .vrt file against 
its schema.

But minixml functionnality should be enough for WCS purposes, and libxml2 and 
Xerces-C 
remain optional dependencies.

Even
