Maybe some of the companies doing business with Postgres can chime in to let Nick Wellnhofer (the aforementioned maintainer) spend more time on libxml2 maintenance: https://opencollective.com/libxml2
Currently, looking at the OpenCollective reports, it seems USD 50 come monthly from Airbnb to libxml2's Wellnhofer. That's unlikely to pay very many bills.
