Because it cannot find libxml2. What you did and called it installation 
is sufficient to run xmllint, xsltproc and perhaps other things which 
are allready compiled.

To compile something you need the headers and libraries put on your 
compiler's search path and that is very different to the content of the 
PATH environment variable.
