 * \param patch_files  optional vector of strings with patch file paths.
 *
 * The parameter \c toplevel_tag is provided for compatibility with our existing

 * conflicts with the naming rules of ConfigTree. Via that parameter the naming
 * rules do not apply to the toplevel tag.
 *
 * Unfortunately the XML parser shipped with <tt>boost::property_tree</tt> does
 * not fully support the XML standard. Additionally there might be encoding
 * issues. From their docs:
 *
 * > Please note that RapidXML does not understand the encoding specification.
 * If you pass it a > character buffer, it assumes the data is already correctly
 * encoded; if you pass it a filename, > it will read the file using the
 * character conversion of the locale you give it (or the global > locale if you
 * give it none). This means that, in order to parse a UTF-8-encoded XML file
 * into > a wptree, you have to supply an alternate locale, either directly or
 * by replacing the global one.
