compiling svn under cygwin breaks

I'm using latest cygwin on WinXP.

per the instructions, I got the latest src 0.26, and ran:

./configure --enable-maintainer-mode

It fails and cannot find libxml/parser.h 

checking for xml2-config... xml2-config
checking libxml/xmlversion.h usability... yes
checking libxml/xmlversion.h presence... yes
checking for libxml/xmlversion.h... yes
checking libxml/parser.h usability... no
checking libxml/parser.h presence... no
checking for libxml/parser.h... no
checking parser.h usability... no
checking parser.h presence... no
checking for parser.h... no
configure: error: could not find parser.h, libxml installation problem?
configure failed for neon

searching my system parser.h is here: /usr/include/libxml2/libxml/parser.h


how do I pass this info to configure?  it seems I'd need to pass it to 
neon's configure, but it looks like sub's configure calls it for me.

I can't test this right now, since something odd seems to have happened to
my local Cygwin package cache, so I can't install libxml2. But I can say
that subversion compiles fine if you have expat installed and libxml2 not
installed.

Also, IIRC you can pass --enable-* and --with-* to a toplevel configure, and
it will pass them through to configures it recursively invokes.

What's the output of "xml2-config --version" and "xml2-config --cflags"?

Can you send me the neon/config.log file produced by that failed
configure run? It could be there is some problem including that file on
cygwin which can be fixed.

Regards,

joe
