Turns out setup.py requiring lxml was never in a released version which is a big relief as we don't need that anymore.

Especially important changes:
-* Currently lxml is a mandatory dependency of Beautiful Soup when
- installed via pip. In the near future, lxml will become an optional
- dependency. Requiring lxml makes it more difficult to install
- Beautiful Soup, and recent improvements to Python's built-in HTML
- parser make it good enough to serve as the default.
-
- If you install Beautiful Soup via a requirements.txt file and you
- still want Beautiful Soup to use lxml as its parser (you probably
- do), you should add 'lxml' to the list of requirements.
-
* Added a warning when you instantiate a BeautifulSoup object without
explicitly naming a parser. [bug=1398866]
