On reflection, I'm not sure it would help as the shared library is found.
The problem is the search order. I assume that you running Linux,
and ld-linux.so(8) tells me:
The necessary shared libraries needed by the program are searched for
in the following order
o Using the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH
(LD_AOUT_LIBRARY_PATH for a.out programs). Except if the exeâ
cutable is a setuid/setgid binary, in which case it is ignored.
o From the cache file /etc/ld.so.cache which contains a compiled
list of candidate libraries previously found in the augmented
library path.
o In the default path /lib, and then /usr/lib.
I suspect that you have "/usr/local/lib" in /etc/ld.so.conf or
/etc/ld.so.conf.d/libc.conf, so from the order above, libraries in
/usr/local/lib will be used before e.g. /lib/libreadline.so.6
ldconfig -v might help you figure out the search order which is actually
used.

The immediate readline dependency of xmllint should be removable with
--without-readline as an argument to configure when building libxml2,
which then hopefully will get you a working glib2 build, which was the
original problem.
As to gdm, I think you may end up in "dependency hell" - which version
are you using BTW?

(pkgsrc.org may help as a source building shortcut)
