 Oops, sorry.  I did some tests first with docbook-xml, basically trying
 'make show-var VARNAME=XMLCATMGR PKG_PHASE=configure' and saw the
 incorrect result.  But after a while, I ended up in the libxml2
 directory, where the same command produces the expected, correct output.
 
 I didn't notice that I was in the wrong directory at the end, so I got
 the impression that it was fixed.

 Very probable.
