1. Your XCode is out of date. You are 3.0 but current is 3.1.2.  
Download this from ADC.
2. Is your Macports uptodate? sudo port -d selfupdate.
3. on libxml2 you may have a bad download. DO:
sudo port -d clean --all libxml2

Try this (in that order) and see how much of your problems that  
fixes.  If you still need help be sure you give your OS and cpu type  
when you wrote back. It helps troubleshoot.

good luck
