No, xmlsoft.org is a RHEL-5 system, and libxml2 from git configures and compiles just fine there. xmlsoft:~/libxml2 -> nm /usr/lib/libz.a | grep gzopen64 xmlsoft:~/libxml2 -> grep gzopen64 /usr/include/zlib.h xmlsoft:~/libxml2 -> rpm -Vp /usr/lib/libz.a /usr/include/zlib.h xmlsoft:~/libxml2 -> I would guess you have some random zlib.h laying around exposing gzopen64 and that the system library don't support. In general not maintaining your system with rpm generate this kind of random problems, and nobody will be able to be sure of what's going on.
