Yes, it's handled by ext/xml/extconf.rb . The Ruby version you build
against is determined by the Ruby you run that script with. You can pass
in the path to libxml in usual extconf style (--with-xml2-dir or
--with-xml2-lib and --with-xml2-include).

You'll need to manually run the extconf (rather than relying on the
Rakefile) to pass in those options and then run make as usual.
