True. I guess we do have to keep in mind that people might have installed
stuff (like libxml) via MacPorts for other reasons. Ideally the build
wouldn't break in these cases.

Ok, if I understand you correctly the issue is that we're not building an
internal copy of libxml, because pkg-config detects a macports installed
version of libxml but redland isn't (yet) smart enough to pick this up.
Can't we somehow make the redland smart enough to use the version of libxml
configure found at top-level? That seems to me to be the root cause of the
problem.
