It's not an open source library, but DataDirect XQuery does something 
very similar to what you are looking for, and not just for XPath, but 
for XQuery processing, through a technique called XML Streaming.

See 
http://www.datadirect.com/products/xquery/ddxq_technical_overview/index.ssp 
for a technical overview of the product.
