Thanks for your help! Indeed, when running "setup.py install" from the guix
builder, libxml2 is found after installing it, so the "--prefix" is
honoured. However, then iconv.h is searched for in the given list of paths,
which does not include /nix/store/...glibc.../include, and the CPATH is not
taken into account, so iconv.h is not found.
I tried adding glibc as an explicit input and to overwrite the path in
setup.py. However, that does not use the glibc of the CPATH, but builds
another one on top of it. Do I understand it correctly that I need to use
glibc-final instead?

Specifying no --prefix, it now tries to install a file as
/nix/store/j8f28wavspyic8g9didl1ninaz48vdq0-
python-2.7.3/lib/python2.7/site-packages/libxml2mod.so
which fails since this is another package, not libxml2.
Giving as --prefix the output path, files are instead installed into
/nix/store/svnw8fq87qrfrpcs7grx5nram558ahkp-
libxml2-2.9.0/lib/python2.7/site-packages/
which looks reasonable.
I am attaching the resulting patch. Is it reasonable to apply it to the
libxml2 package, or would it be preferable to create a separate libxml2-
python package?
