Your include path contains /usr/local/libxml2/include/libxml2/libxml,
so Postgres is probably looking for
/usr/local/libxml2/include/libxml2/libxml/libxml/parser.h, which I
suspect is wrong. Try removing the extra "/libxml" from the include
path.

But the path you have is:

/usr/local/libxml2/include/libxml2/libxml

and the included file is

libxml/parser.h

Put those together and you get:

/usr/local/libxml2/include/libxml2/libxml/libxml/parser.h

*not*

/usr/local/libxml2/include/libxml2/libxml/parser.h

Regards, Dave
