Buildproblems on OSX 10.3 due to libxml2

["Florian G. Pflug" <fgp(at)phlo(dot)org>]

Hi

As you might (or might not ;-) ) have noticed, there where no nightly pgadmin-trunk builds
for a few weeks now. The build broke because of problems with libxml2. I solved this now
by adding a custom-built libxml2 to my buildserver and passing --with-libxml2=<my inst dir>
to configure. The funny thing, however, is that OSX seems to include a version of libxml,
installed in /usr. This version was detected by configure before I installed my own version,
but since it doesn't include xmlwriter.h (I don't know why - An older version maybe?), the
build later failed.

Since this will plague more people than me, I'd suggest changing the configure-check for
libxml2 to explicitly check for xmlwriter.h.

greetings, Florian Pflug
