xml stats question

Hi folks,


Quick question on xml stats...  I've used the new style statistics for
monitoring, etc. and find it really useful as I'm sure many do.  One of
the things I'm working on is moving to collectd vs remote polling, and the
bind plugin seems to require v2 vs v3 xml schema (my first guess, since it
won't parse the default xml I'm seeing under /, which looks different in
the latest releases).

I'm sure the plugin will get updated at some point, but from reading over
the 9.9.4 ARM it says I should be able to access URIs like /xml/v2 and
/xml/v3 but neither of those work for me -- just the top level page which
I think is the newer schema (it looks different than it did in 9.8).
However, the ARM also says the v? URIs will be available only "if the
requested schema is supported by the server" -- what determines that
availability?  I've compiled with libxml2 which makes the top-level stats
work.  Do I just need more configure options or something else to get
/xml/v2 working?

TIA
