Re:  ImportError when importing etree from lxml
Thanks for the info!  When I run xlstproc --version, I get

Using libxml 20901, libxslt 10128 and libexslt 817
xsltproc was compiled against libxml 20901, libxslt 10128 and libexslt 817
libxslt 10128 was compiled against libxml 20901
libexslt 817 was compiled against libxml 20901

I'm guessing that 20901 means 2.9.1.  Is that correct?  If so, it appears
to match the version of libxml2 that I have installed.

One additional thing: I have tried running xsltproc and xmllint on simple
examples, and they both seem to run okay.  I just get the problem when
importing etree from lxml.

Please let me know your thoughts based on this info.
