  No that's normal. Also note that Makefile.in is generated from Makefile.am

  It's on purpose. XPath includes the c module directly:
 
--------------
#ifndef TRIO_REPLACE_STDIO
#define TRIO_PUBLIC static
#endif
#include "trionan.c"

  Either your compiler has troubles with including a C file, or 
you were relying on definitions exported by libxml which are not exported
anymore because they really ought to be exported by the system libraries,
not by an XML library. Try defining TRIO_REPLACE_STDIO .
