XML to dictionary?

I have a relatively simple XML question, but I can't seem to figure out
how to do it simply and easily with the xmllib module.
Assume I have some XML (stylized below):
<Newsgroup>
<comp.lang.python>
<Message1>
<Subject>Hi there</Subject>
<Body>This is a test</Body>
</Message1>
</comp.lang.python>
</Newsgroup>
How can I quickly and easily stuff this into a nested dictionary, so
that:
print dict['Newsgroup']['comp.lang.python']['Message1']['Subject']
spits out 'Hi there'
The XML I am working with is perfect for this type of solution.
Any help would be appreciated!
