Daniel,
Since you are the author of xsltproc, perhaps you
could give an example of the proper use of catalogs with
your tool?  Catalogs are great, *when they work*.
But it's frustrating when you try to use catalogs
and they don't work.  It is hard to figure out *why*
they don't work.  Did I give it the right syntax?
Did it find my catalog? Which relative path didn't
it get?  Was there something wrong
with the catalog file? Or the catalog entry?
Is there a debug option that traces the catalog resolution
process?  The latter would be especially nice.  8^)
