Yes.  4Suite is designed to work with PyXML.  Infact you need 4Suite  
installed to perform validation.

The xpath implementation that ships with PyXML is out of date.  We will  
be resynching it shortly, but for now you will want to use Ft.Xml.XPath

They are both from the same code base.  xml.xpath was copied from  
4Suite over a year a go and I don't think anyone has had the time to  
update it since then.
