I think the question here is why this path is used:
You are spot on and I'm sorry for my ignorance and wasting your time. I have a little patch that enabled wine to be build against some system mingw libraries, among them the "xml2", once wine used its bundled libraries everything went back to normal. Again, really sorry, I would close this as invalid.
