The extension has been renamed to xml2, as you already noticed :)
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.2/static/xml2.html
Please mind that there's a built-in xml datatype, and additional
funtions:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.2/static/datatype-xml.html
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.2/static/functions-xml.html

Additionally, you're encouraged to use the latest PostgreSQL version,
that is 9.4 these days.

Oh well: https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=202649

Please mind that the built-in XML support is (mostly) unavailable
without that patch.
