[OSM-talk] Osm2Pgsql problem linking to libxml2

[Artem Pavlenko]

Casey,

This is not the best place to ask about compiling and linking on win32. 
Try MinGW or similar .

-lxml - means link to libxml library at compile time.  Those errors you're 
getting ralated to the linking (or rather not linking to libxml).
On win32 you might need to have .lib file (stub)  as well as .dll 

Cheers,
Artem
