oh, yes, you're right. I'm not meaning to remove the XSLT stuff. Of course,
I think it's the best way to go. I'm just trying to find a solution for all these
compile problems people are having.

So, I've taken the easiest solution for now, which is to not build the libxmlquery at all
for this 0.2.9 release, since it's not being even used anywhere. Of course, this
will happen only for this new version, and as soon as it's released, I'll work
on finding the right solution, specially since I plan to start using this
libxmlqiery stuff as soon as 0.2.9 is released.

So, the tarball with the libxmlquery disabled is now available at the usual
place:

	ftp://ftp.gnome-db.org/pub/gnome-db/sources/0.2.9/

cheers
