Oh, here's the answer to one question; you add a hard dependency on another
package. Is it possible/practical to make this a soft dependency (using the
dl_* functions)? That would make it possible to ship the plug-in in the main
package. Hmmm. If it's too much effort, don't bother; packagers will have to
make it a different binary package (from the same source). A little
inconvenient at first for the package maintainers, but neither unpossible or
that ugly.

ObPatchNote: it would be even better if the archive was only a patch (with
the new files patched against "empty" (there is an option for that in "cvs
diff")


Ok, here's the full-updated-plugin-patch (~1 hour snapshot). It uses g_module* for loading libxslt. I cannot 
test it on Win32, so I'll be pleased that anyone try it before the next release so I don't get flames :)

There are some things the patch changes at a more global level:
        add a DIA_PLUGIN_PATH envvar.
        check for libxslt upon configure: What to do I the lib is not found ? (I'm no auto* guru)

Congratulations for the nice work, I succeeded getting a friend to use Dia before 1.0!
