I try to find out the problem. Remove all modules then install libxmljs only, it get success with no error.Remove all modules again then only install just xmlshim, it get error as above.
I found libxmljs which xmlshim depend on is not original package. I don't know if this is the main reason.

That seems to be because xmlshim depends on a fork of libxmljs, the latest version of libxmljs very nicely provides precompiled binary, eliminating a lot of Windows GYP headache.

Primarily blocked by this libxmljs/libxmljs#493

As a workaround you can just npm install git://github.com/znerol/libxmljs.git#xmlwriter-0.18.0
