  you will obviously need to rebuild libxml2 against that python
and then libxslt:
paphio:~/XML -> ./configure --help | grep python
  --with-python[=DIR]     build Python bindings if found
paphio:~/XML -> 

  you need to point where the python 2.2 stuff has been installed
export PYTHON=/usr/bin/python2.2 ; ./configure
  may work too
