I hate the reading, especially when I don't know exactly what I need to find.

Experience: What you get after you needed it.

 Oh boy, did this experience ever hurt.  :(

 After a fair amount of reading and experimentation, I finally (doh!)
realized that the key piece that I was missing is that xsltproc is
*not* doing validation, and doesn't need to do validation.  I had
assumed that it would be a necessary step, but as I'm just looking for
print output, I just don't need to worry about grammatically valid XML
files. (But now I know how to generate the grammars should I ever want
to do so. :)

  Thanks to a number of hints from Bob and Dick, I've got a workable
solution for the question that I posited.  Thanks guys!

Sample command:
==============
xsltproc --nonet --xinclude --output test.fo app.xsl test.xml
c:\docbook\fop.bat test.fo test.pdf
