What about all the Express versions of the relational database products that have XML features such as SQL Server 2005 express (http://www.microsoft.com/sql/editions/express/default.mspx) or Oracle 10gR2 Express? They should be free (have some processing limitations though like amount of data) but are normally fully functional for the general SQL and XML functionalities.
