and c) you ignore the actual issue here at hand and that is that the new libxml2 breaks the ABI, causing at least libxmlsec to be needed to be rebuilt.
I didn't file it for the plain build issue. Nevertheless, if it broke so many projects you probably should do a full-fledged rebuild and send patches before uploading to unstable and putting this on all maintainers (or by making them get a FTBFS bug by Lucas once a rebuild happens at which time people won't remember the libxml2 update)
In any case, *this* bug is about the ABI change: removed symbols/versions other stuff relies on.
Long story short: libxml2 2.12 has still a long road to go with much work on your side until you can upload it to unstable.
