I made some changes to the XML configuration a month or so ago
to try and get the API docs rebuilding again (they use their own 
copy of xslt, but the system DTDs/stylesheets), so that may
have broken it.

        * Upgrade passivetex docbook-style-xsl to recent
        Red Hat versions.

        * Update xml-common, docbook-dtds to RH 9 versions;
        manually fix up /etc/xml/catalog which was corrupt.
 
I guess the next thing to try would be to upgrading xsltproc
and deps to the Red Hat 9 versions, if someone wants to do that;
it may be that the older versions can't handle the newer stylesheets.
