Build is broken since bump of libxml2 to version 2.9.11 in commit
a241dcec4188dbf30fbc8b65d7e6f2ece9da3d04 because libxslt calls the
following command "${XML_CONFIG} --libs print" which will return an
error code since
https://github.com/GNOME/libxml2/commit/2a357ab99e6f5c9196384b11cd91dd993f93014c

Fixes:

Changes v1 -> v2 (after review of Peter Seiderer):
 - Use upstream patch instead of dropping --with-libxml-prefix

+Subject: [PATCH] Fix xml2-config check in configure script
+
+A 'print' option has never been supported. After a recent change to
+libxml2, invalid options cause xml2-config to fail.
