Comment(by ryandesign@…):

 Replying to [comment:3 jhi@…]:
 > It is not using -lxml2, I think.  As I said, from the config.log:

 -fvisibility=hidden -I/opt/local/include -no-cpp-precomp -L/opt/local/lib

 The command continues on the next line with "-lm  -lxml2 -lz -liconv -lm".

 php5 builds fine for me on my Mac OS X 10.5.7 Intel system so something
 must be different about yours.

 Running blb's nm command on my system I get:

 {{{
          U _xmlInitParser
 000091cd T _xmlInitParserCtxt
 00020379 T _xmlInitParser
          U _xmlInitParser
          U _xmlInitParser
          U _xmlInitParser
          U _xmlInitParser
 }}}

 Since that's different than what you got, could you please try rebuilding
 your libxml2, after you sync and update outdated ports to make sure you
 have the latest software?

 {{{
 sudo port sync
 port outdated
 sudo port upgrade outdated
 }}}

 If that did not already upgrade libxml2, then force it like this:

 {{{
 sudo port -nf upgrade libxml2
 }}}
