I've fixed that so it should compile ... a missing #ifdef in some new 
code ... but it indicates an underlying problem in that the configure 
script has failed to locate libxml2 and your base library is being 
built without xml support.  Could you look at the log from the 
configure and work out why libxml2 is not found?
