PATCH 1/1 libxml2 install fails because of missing directory

If libxml2 is installed before $(TARGET_DIR)/usr/lib is created, it fails because it can't copy the library over.

Also, the dependency tree is a bit messed up. libxml2.a should only be installed if target-headers is specified, it's 4MB on my system and the only .a file I found in my TARGET_DIR (target-headers was not specified).

The attached patch fixes the above problems.
