The reason is apparently that FFmpeg cannot know in advance
where the necessary headers are installed.
I will likely send a patch that would fix the issue for you (with
--extra-cflags=/path/to/libxml) but there is a high chance that
it will be rejected: Building for less common systems is
unfortunately not welcome;-(

My suggestion is you simply patch away the check from
configure or edit config.h and config.mak after running
configure to enable libxml2 and add the necessary path.
