Apparently not.

Here's what I'm trying:

./configure --with-libxml 
--with-libraries=/Library/Frameworks/libxml.framework/ --with-perl 
--prefix=/Users/josh/pg83b2

The libxml in that directory is 2.6.30, but .configure always seems to 
find the default one first.

What I get for demoing on an OS which uses libxml in the OS ... darn 
Apple, anyway.  But we'd better get ready for a lot of bug reports from 
mac users.
