Nope.  *Parsing* XML is a bit heavy-weight, but generating it requires
only a tiny routine to escape characters if you support arbitrary
names in the generated XML; you can generate it textually, not
via a DOM.  gdbserver does this, for instance, and I'd guess it's just
a couple hundred bytes of code.  No more than it would take for a
qfThreadInfo analogue.
