Hi Nick,

This breaks users who are linking with a static libxslt library. The switch

Can I just confirm that:
(1) The behaviour of `--libs` should remain as is (i.e. passing
libraries for static linking)
(2) But calling `--libs --dynamic` outputs the libraries for dynamic
linking only?
Yes, I think the necessary steps are:
- Implement `xml2-config --libs --dynamic`.
- Make the libxslt build call `xml2-config --libs --dynamic` for the
shared library. (We have to support platforms without pkg-config, so
we can't drop support for `xml2-config`.)
- Implement `xslt-config --libs --dynamic`.
- Adjust libxslt and libexslt pkg-config files.
I'm not sure whether libxml2 should be a private dependency of libxslt (also
what about libexslt?).
