Currently, there's no need to build libxml2 multithreaded. 
libswishindex isn't thread safe and libxml2 isn't used by libswish-e. 
I'm not sure whether zlib should be multithreaded, though.  zlib is used
by both libswish-e and libswishindex.

The MSVC projects always concern me because I'm never completely sure
whether everything is properly defined.  Omitting the HAVE_ZLIB
definition would disable zlib compression, for example.  Sometime soon I
need to carefully compare the MSVC definitions with those generated by
autoconf for MinGW (src/acconfig.h).  MinGW is the definitive reference
since it's completely automated with libtool and autoconf. 
Unfortunately, I can't use the MinGW acconfig.h with MSVC because MinGW
provides Unix compatibility functions not found in MSVCRT.
