The popular pywikipediabot framework has an -xml: option, and
I used to believe that it required the filename of an uncompressed
XML file. But I was wrong. The following works just fine:

python replace.py -lang:da \
   -xml:../dumps/dawiki/dawiki-20110404-pages-articles.xml.bz2 \
   dansk svensk

If the following would also work (but it does not), we wouldn't
have to worry about disk space at all:

python replace.py -lang:da \
   
-xml:http://dumps.wikimedia.org/dawiki/20111202/dawiki-20111202-pages-articles.xml.bz2
 
\
   dansk svensk
