It wouldn't break the majority of software projects to change the libxml2
headers to include each other by the path `libxml2/libxml` instead of just by
`libxml`. Most configurations will have `/include` in the header search
directories prior to `include/libxml2` which would have been added to
use/switch to libxml2.

You have to use -I $HOME/local/include/libxml2. On Linux systems and Cygwin,
the system's built-in libxml2 places its headers in /usr/include/libxml2/libxml
and you have to use -I /usr/include/libxml2
libxml2 is weird like that :) . You just have to live with it.
(Perhaps libxml2 is set up like this to be source-compatible with libxml1, so
programs which e.g. #include <libxml/SAX.h> can be compiled without modifying
the source, just by adding an extra compiler switch. But I'm just speculating.)

No other libraries that I use ask me to add additional include directories to
my compiler search paths (including boost, libxslt, postgresql, openssl).
