The homepage mentions it, but the documentation has not yet been  
modified
to reflect this addition.  It's a relatively small change from an API  
perspective.
If you are using the xqilla command line utility, you need to
pass the (new) -u flag to tell it to parse update expressions

If you are using the C++ API, you need to tell the parser to parse  
update
expressions.  You do this by creating a DynamicContext object using
the XQilla object:
	DynamicContext *context XQilla::createContext()
(see include/xqilla/XQilla.hpp)

Pass XQilla::XQUERY|XQilla::UPDATE as the first argument.  Use
the returned object in your future parse() calls that return the XQQuery
object you use for actual query execution.
