this is wrong. This option specifies a path to the program xml2-config
(or xml-config), which is run to produce the C and ld flags needed to
link libxml2. Since you have the library installed in /usr/local you
shouldn't need the argument at all, but if you use it make sure it
points to the xml2-config program.

I should tighten up the autoconf test of course...
