Hi!

I've now tracked down the problem (thanks alpha for having the problem
:)

The problem was that libxml2 just recently changed to install in
/usr/include/libxml2/libxml instead of /usr/include/libxml. This
resulted in apps changing there includes from 

#include <gnome-xml/libxml.h>

to 

#include <libxml/libxml.h>

and controlling which libxml to use from configure by either calling
xml-config --cflags
or
xml2-config --cflags

so if you had an old libxml2 (libxml2 2.4.41 was doing wrong at least)
that resulted in the makefile finding /usr/include/libxml before
/usr/include/gnome-xml/libxml (which it should).

So, the fix, unmerge all old versions of libxml2 and remerge libxml2
>2.4.9
