Hi, here that error is caused because, /usr/include/python2.3/cobject.h file does not contained what it is supposed to have(dont know how this happ.) . So re-emerged python to fix that and then after while emerging libxml2-2.6.17 , it went fine without any errors. Thanks for those at irc #gentoo channel, who guided with the above steps, and for others who carry on this wonderful job.
