I have 2.9.1 Debian-packaged here, and it works fine for me. config.log
says:
configure:8767: checking for xmlSaveToBuffer in -lxml2
configure:8801: result: yes

ii libxml2:amd64 2.9.1+dfsg1-4 amd64 GNOME XML library
ii libxml2-dev:amd64 2.9.1+dfsg1-4 amd64 Development files for the GNOME XML library
