[bug-gettext] [bug #46844] gettext 0.19.7 fails to compile, OS X 10.7 & 10.8

[Daniel Burr]

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #46844 (project gettext):

This failure does not only occur with older versions of OS X.  The system
version of libxml2 in Debian 7.10 is 2.8.0, which is missing the two functions
listed above.  According to the changelog for libxml2, these functions were
introduced in the following releases:

* xmlOutputBufferGetContent(): introduced in libxml2 2.9.0
* xmlXPathSetContextNode(): introduced in libxml2 2.9.1

The attached patch adds a test to check whether the system version of libxml2
includes xmlXPathSetContextNode() (i.e. whether it is version 2.9.1 or later).
 If it is not then the included version of libxml2 is used instead.
