Hi Clytie,
xml2po is a Python script, therefore for libxml2 support you need the 
"libxml2 Python binding" package.
On Linux this is a package called "libxml2-python". Can you find such a 
package on OS/X?
Have a look at http://xmlsoft.org/python.html for some additional help.

Hope this helps,
Simos
