libxslt fails to cross built from source, because it fails running the
built xsltproc. Mattia introduced the bug in -3 in order to fix a FTBFS
when built twice. As it happens, the clean target removes the manual
pages (which otherwise wouldn't be built!) and the second build failed
to produce them. Thus Mattia made it use the built xsltproc as the
/usr/bin one wasn't there.
Another solution to this problem would be depending on xsltproc. That'd
be a circular dependency though. For cross building, that's exactly what
we have to do. Not so for native builds.
So here comes a patch that makes libxslt cross build and build twice in
a row.
