I don't have a Mac to test this on. And non-Mac-OS distributions of Darwin are basically nonexistent these days. I'd happily accept a patch to fix it though.

Some research: $ pkg-config --cflags libxml-2.0 -I/usr/include/libxml2 -> But this directory did not exist at all, in fact, there were no include directories or files here. But I found a helpful page: https://silvae86.github.io/sysadmin/mac/osx/mojave/beta/libxml2/2018/07/05/fixing-missing-headers-for-homebrew-in-mac-osx-mojave/ After running the proposed "installer" command the include files were installed --- and the build of Alien-LibXML was successful. So probably there's not much what the Alien-LibXML can do here, other than checking if the directory in the -I option actually exists, and pointing the user to the possible solution.
