Hi mark, I have imported libcutl with fixes from FreeBSD ports and made
xsd use this instead of its internal libcutl. For me this now works.
The internal libcutl uses an internal version of boost that is old
and has regexp that is now gone from boost. Somehow boost regexp don't
work well on NetBSD.
