The latest git version of Sigil now includes the ability to clone, patch, configure and install a working version of libxml2 alongside Sigil (does not affect the system version of libxml2). To enable it, just add the -DBUILD_PATCHED_LIBXML2=1 option to the initial cmake configuration command.
From the documentation:

-DBUILD_PATCHED_LIBXML2=(0|1) Some newer versions of libxml2 have a bug that causes QtWebKit to render html entities twice. Adding -DBUILD_PATCHED_LIBXML2=1 to the cmake command will clone the libxml2 git repo, checkout a specific commit, patch the source, build it and install it alongside Sigil (does not affect the system version of libxml2). Requires git, libtool, autoconf and automake packages to be installed (as well as a working internet connection). Cmake should notify of any missing programs needed. The default is to NOT build the patched version of libxml2 (-DBUILD_PATCHED_LIBXML2=0).
