  right, you can find the src.rpm at ftp://xmlsoft.org/
  rpm --rebuild libxml2-2.5.1-1.src.rpm
or 
  rpmbuild --rebuild libxml2-2.5.1-1.src.rpm

  for recent versions of rpm.
This will recompile the package locally for your system generating
libxml2-2.5.1-1.i386.rpm

  using the -U flag of rpm
  rpm -U libxml2-2.5.1-1.i386.rpm
