If you installed libxml2 from source--rather than from RPM--chances are that it's been installed in a folder other than the system library directory (/usr/lib). It's probably in /usr/local/lib instead. So you can do one of two things: either reconfigure libxml2 specifying --prefix=/usr or reconfigure PHP --with-libxml-dir= and your actual libxml2 installation path.
