You should usually include config.log from the working directory when
reporting build problems. You probably got this during
'make configure'...
checking for lzma_code in -llzma... no
.... which should perhaps be fatal for this port at configure time.
But it's not, so you die later during at link time.
The culprit is the lzmalib port you have installed.
It interacts badly in this case.
The quick fix is to remove that port if you don't need it.
Then libxml2 will build.
A better fix might be to try to coerce libxml2 to use the base lzma
include files & libs rather than the ones from lzmalib. Here is a patch
to do that...

Another might be to fix lzmalib to be a better wrapper.
Another might be to stop using lzmalib in our ports tree, fixing any
references to it to just rely on the base lib instead and delete the
lzmalib port.
