[Scribus] Can't import formatted text with "official" Debian package

On MacOSX, this works, but only after I make a small patch to the 
configure.in file. Would it be possible to change the line

AC_PATH_PROG(XML_CONFIG, xml2-config, [AC_MSG_ERROR([Could not find 
libxml2 anywhere, check http://www.xmlsoft.org/])], [${prefix}/bin 
${exec_prefix}/bin /usr/local/bin /opt/local/bin /usr/bin /usr/X11/bin])

in such a way that $PATH is searched first? The following works:

AC_PATH_PROG(XML_CONFIG, xml2-config, [AC_MSG_ERROR([Could not find 
libxml2 anywhere, check http://www.xmlsoft.org/])], [$PATH ${prefix}/bin 
${exec_prefix}/bin /usr/local/bin /opt/local/bin /usr/bin /usr/X11/bin])

Otherwise, configure doesn't find the Fink-installed libxml2 headers; it 
finds the Apple ones from the system, but these don't agree with Scribus 
about whether they are newer than 2.6 or not, giving "too many 
initializers" errors.

This is not really a bug, and actually for a Fink package it wouldn't 
matter, because ${prefix} would be sufficient for finding the right 
libxml2, but for compiling from CVS (which is already sufficiently 
difficult) it matters.
