No, patching the source before building it:
http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/pkgsrc/textproc/libxml2/patches/patch-ac?rev=1.6&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup
So, how then does NetBSD inform applications wishing to use libxml2 that
the catalog has been moved elsewhere? Have they modifed xml2-config to
emit that information or something?

I've not looked through the other patches, but I don't think any changes
that are made to xml2-config have to do with XML catalog support. Those
kind of config scripts are normally just patched to add in things like
default linker paths. Programs don't have to be aware of where the
default catalog is, the library is configured to know when it's built.
