Thanks for the analysis.

I'd also seen the same line when building libvirt, but hadn't taken the
time to figure out why; libvirt indeed does:
configure.ac:AC_PATH_PROG([RM], [rm], [/bin/rm])
(but with correct m4 quoting, compared to libxml2).
There's nothing autoconf can do about it, but it might make sense for
libtool to change something.
