I personally don't think a parser/serializer for a markup language
belongs into the core of a programming language (but i guess i'm
getting old :-)

One issue not to underestimate is the licence clash: libxml2 is
distributed under an MIT licence, GUILE has a modified (?) LGPL.
I'd hate to have a dual language core (wasn't there a recent 
approach to even get rid of the LGPL modifications?).
