LDFLAGS is meant for flags, like -L/usr/local/lib, not libraries like -lxml2

You should investigate other automake directives; something like
xmlparsefile_LIBS or xmlparsefile_LDLIBS, for `xml2-config --libs`
(disclaimer: I'm not familiar with automake)

Although the output of `xml2-config --libs` contains both -L and -l
options, the location of -L options in the commandline is not
significant. The location of -l options is significant, however.
