Anatol,
Here is a source package building libxml2 2.9.1. It took less than 5 minutes to
modify the official repo PKGBUILD and build the new version.
I haven't tested all software depending on libxml2 but I have installed it
myself and so far so good everything works perfectly for me.
Something stripped out the bin attachement. Here is a diff:
