Try running (sh syntax):

rcorder /etc/rc.d/* /usr/local/etc/rc.d/* 2>&1 | less

On one of my DNS servers, I see these lines:

/etc/rc.d/ipfw
/etc/rc.d/NETWORKING      <--
/etc/rc.d/netwait
/etc/rc.d/mountcritremote
/etc/rc.d/accounting
/etc/rc.d/ldconfig        <--
/etc/rc.d/newsyslog
/etc/rc.d/syslogd         <--
/etc/rc.d/ntpdate
/etc/rc.d/rpcbind
/etc/rc.d/nfsclient
/etc/rc.d/devfs
/etc/rc.d/ipmon
/etc/rc.d/mdconfig2
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/named <--
/etc/rc.d/kdc

If libxml2.so.2 is missing from /usr/local/lib, then check to see if 
files named libxml2.so.2.* exists in /usr/local/lib/compat/pkg/.

In a pinch you might be able to move on by running something like 
this:

ln -s libxml2.so.2.9.2 /usr/local/lib/compat/pkg/libxml2.so.2

Substitute libxml2.so.2.9.2 with the newest file as found in 
your /usr/local/lib/compat/pkg directory. In my case, I can choose 
between libxml2.so.2.9.1 and libxml2.so.2.9.2.

Next, I would probably reinstall/forcefully upgrade textproc/libxml2.
