identifier "_Ctype_struct__xmlDoc" may conflict with identifiers generated by cgo

I'm trying to install gokogiri on a macOS 10.14.4 (Mojave) and Go 1.12.3. I've installed libxml2 using brew. Installing gokogiri with:

LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/opt/libxml2/lib" CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/opt/libxml2/include" PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/local/opt/libxml2/lib/pkgconfig" go get github.com/moovweb/gokogiri

Outputs the error:

# github.com/moovweb/gokogiri/xml
../../github.com/moovweb/gokogiri/xml/document.go:330:19: identifier "_Ctype_struct__xmlDoc" may conflict with identifiers generated by cgo

How may I compile gokogiri?
