svn should not be installing things into /opt/local/man either. Both  
of these ports install manpages into /opt/local/share/man on my  
system like they should.

On your system is /opt/local/man a symlink pointing to /opt/local/ 
share/man
Or is /opt/local/share/man a symlink pointing to /opt/local/man
Or are both of these regular directories?

Since 2.6.32_1, libxml2 runs autoreconf to regenerate the configure  
script. I see on your system this was done with autoconf 2.59 but on  
mine it was done with autoconf 2.62. I don't even know how that's  
possible; after deactivating the autoconf port libxml2 won't even  
begin running autoconf, complaining about items in ${prefix}/share/ 
aclocal, and if I move those aside, then it still says "error:  
Autoconf version 2.60 or higher is required".

So either you have not installed the autoconf port or you have  
installed an older version of the autoconf port or your autoconf port  
is deactivated. I would expect the autoconf port to be installed on  
your system, since libxml2 declares a build dependency on libtool  
which has a build dependency on automake which has a build dependency  
on autoconf.

Do you have the autoconf port installed? If not, install it (sudo  
port install autoconf)
Is the autoconf port active? If not, activate it (sudo port activate  
autoconf)
Is the autoconf port at version 2.62? If not, upgrade it (sudo port  
sync && sudo port upgrade autoconf) and also upgrade any other ports  
shown by "port outdated"

Then "sudo port clean --work libxml2" and "sudo port install libxml2"  
and see if we're better. If so, then adding a build dependency on  
autoconf to the libxml2 port and incrementing its revision will be  
the solution.
