no, still it seems to be necessary to pre-format error messages in libxml2.
I am too busy atm to work on libxml2 and its pascal translation; however, it
would be nice of you, to add a toggling function that decides if the
messages will be passed as expanded (= formated) or normally, with varargs.
By the way, is there any reason for passing the messages unformated (with
varargs) ? Does the callback function have any chance to use them for any
other purpose than formating ? Maybe changing the api's (in future) to _not_
use varargs would bring no limitation at all.

I know it can be a lot of work to go through the whole C code of libxml2 and
change it at all places (Iam not sure but I think there are many);
unfortunatelly I cannot currently offer you help in this.

Regards
Petr
