I suspect the problem is that named is being started before
ldconfig is being called so /usr/local/lib is not being
searched.

You could change the "-L/usr/local/lib" before -lxml2
to "-Wl,-rpath,/usr/local/lib" in bin/named/Makefile,
remove bin/named/named then re-run make to embed
/usr/local/lib into the search path built into named
for the loader.

Alternatively add
LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/local/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}"
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
to /etc/rc.conf/named so that /usr/local/lib will
always be searched.

If you want to disable xml add --with-libxml2=no
to configure's arguments.
