They are not modified. They have been rewritten from scratch.

The reason for doing this was that the first release of the stock 
DocBook XSL Stylesheets which generate EPUB, even after some important 
changes, didn't work with Saxon, only with xsltproc (if my memory serves 
me well).

After rewriting the EPUB stylesheets from scratch, we have contributed 
them to the DocBook XSL Stylesheets open source project. However, this 
open source project has preferred to keep the original stylesheets 
(which are maintained by Keith Fahlgren -- 
http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/au/2878 -- who seems deeply involved in EPUB).

My pleasure.

I'm curious to learn what is your problem with the latest version of the 
stock DocBook XSL Stylesheets which generate EPUB?

PS: Please do not forget to to read
XXE_install_dir/addon/config/docbook/xsl/CHANGES_MADE_BY_XMLMIND.txt
It contains *important* information about XHTML 1.1 which is the 
foundation of EPUB.
