No. That's why I said later versions of xsltproc, although the problem 
is inside libxslt. First, using a patched version goes against the point 
of standard tools. If others decide to use other xslt processors they 
are then SOL. Second, it prevents us from benefiting from updates of the 
tools that fix bugs and improve speed.
