Cross compiling libxml2

[John Darrington]

Trying to cross-compile several packages fails.  One reason is that many 
(inputs ...)
should be declared as (native-inputs ...) - I'm working on this problem.

But another problem which I'm not sure how to fix is that (assoc-ref inputs 
"libc")
returns false.  Hence the build fails:

So it would seem that the alist inputs is incorrect when cross-compiling.
