Hum, i don't think it's fully correct.

Basically it depends if you are compiling with libtool to generate
shared libraries or not. If you are then libxml2.la will be generated
in SRC_DIR and the archive is actually placed in the .libs subdir. But
if you are using that scheme the linker will look at the .la . What could
genrate the problem you're seeing would be if you compile libxml2 as
shared libraries, but try to use the static library to link libxslt/xsltproc
I think the patch is wrong because if you compile libxml2 statically
(configure --disable-shared ...) then there is no .libs and the instructions
you are giving will break the link.
make sure you configure both in the same way if you are using
--with-libxml-src configure option,
