Well, at PyCon 2003, there was a talk about Satine.
http://satine.sourceforge.net/
"Satine converts XML documents to Python lists with attributes (xlist)"

I think that it attempts to load portions of the XML stream into memory only 
as needed.  I'm not sure whether the entire document ends up in memory or 
not...I missed most of the talk. :-(
