It's here, too. 

lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            1 Oct  1 17:04 libxml -> .

I assume it is a compatibility link for source files that include
libxml header files as "libxml/foo.h" or <libxml/foo.h> instead of
just foo.h plus a proper include search path.

# pwd
/mnt/psyche/usr/include/gnome-xml
# file libxml/tree.h
libxml/tree.h: ASCII C program text
# file tree.h 
tree.h: ASCII C program text
