Summary : Library providing XML and HTML support
Description :
This library allows to manipulate XML files. It includes support
to read, modify and write XML and HTML files. There is DTDs support
this includes parsing and validation even with complex DtDs, either
at parse time or later once the document has been modified. The output
can be a simple SAX stream or and in-memory DOM like representations.
In this case one can use the built-in XPath and XPointer implementation
to select sub nodes or ranges. A flexible Input/Output mechanism is
available, with existing HTTP and FTP modules and combined to an
URI library.

It seems like your include path is pointing to "/usr/lib64/" which
basically contains the libraries and not the header files, I guess. To
include libraries you should be using --with-libraries option.
Also, I feel that these types of questions are not for hackers
mailing-list. These are configuration related issues and should
probably be raised in pgsql-general mailing list
(pgsql-general.postgresql.org).

It seems gcc does not compile C99, without -std=c99
configure:4421: checking for gcc option to accept ISO C99
conftest.c:130:3: note: use option -std=c99 or -std=gnu99 to compile your
