Apologies if i'm wrong, but... do you have libxml2 installed? It seems to
me that it's missing from your setup (or it is not installed in the right
place, despite ./configure may find it and not break). You may be giving a
wrong or missing --prefix option to ./configure as well.

If libxml2 is completely missing, you can get it from http://xmlsoft.org.
It is a good idea to check the BUILD file at the top of the Ardour
source-tree, as it has all dependencies listed.
