Hi, I had another look at the output of configure, and it seems it was using a cached location for libxml (/usr) which was stored in config.cache and wasn't being re-discovered on subsequent configure commands. Deleting config.cache solved the problem and 5.1.4 has almost finished installing now. I am a little annoyed that the --with-libxml-dir option did not cause configure to override the cached value, but maybe that's the standard procedure for configure commands?
Thank you Rasmus and Luc for your help.
