 As promised, here is the promised second reply but unfortunately I really
can't say anything useful because we totally failed to reproduce the

mingw installations) and "make install" just worked on both of them.

 This error message looks very strange if the file is there. What does "ls
-l /.libs/xmllint.exe" show?
