How to execute XPath one-liners from shell?

Is there a package out there, for Ubuntu and/or CentOS, that has a command-line tool that can execute an XPath one-liner like foo //element@attribute filename.xml or foo //element@attribute < filename.xml and return the results line by line?

I'm looking for something that would allow me to just apt-get install foo or yum install foo and then just works out-of-the-box, no wrappers or other adaptation necessary.

Here are some examples of things that come close:

Nokogiri. If I write this wrapper I could call the wrapper in the way described above:

#!/usr/bin/ruby

require 'nokogiri'

Nokogiri::XML(STDIN).xpath(ARGV[0]).each do |row|
  puts row
end

XML::XPath. Would work with this wrapper:

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;
use XML::XPath;

my $root = XML::XPath->new(ioref => 'STDIN');
for my $node ($root->find($ARGV[0])->get_nodelist) {
  print($node->getData, "\n");
}

xpath from XML::XPath returns too much noise, -- NODE -- and attribute = "value".

xml_grep from XML::Twig cannot handle expressions that do not return elements, so cannot be used to extract attribute values without further processing.

EDIT:

echo cat //element/@attribute | xmllint --shell filename.xml returns noise similar to xpath.

xmllint --xpath //element/@attribute filename.xml returns attribute = "value".

xmllint --xpath 'string(//element/@attribute)' filename.xml returns what I want, but only for the first match.

For another solution almost satisfying the question, here is an XSLT that can be used to evaluate arbitrary XPath expressions (requires dyn:evaluate support in the XSLT processor):

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http
