Research direction

Start with the media-video/dvdauthor-0.7.3-r3 build and inspect the referenced temp/aclocal.out log, focusing on the libxml2 check and the aclocal/autoconf failure. Reproduce the package compilation after the libxml2 upgrade; done means the package builds successfully with the current dependency and tool versions.
