I looked at it yesterday, problem the patch is wrong, the transformation
may fail and return -1 for a lot of reason and setting then the transformation
error code to 11 immediately at that point is just wrong, it would break 
anybody relying on the existing error codes. So I need to make a real patch
for it and this takes some work, one need to add a new error code and
processing path in the serialization. There is also the undefined behaviour
of a transformation outputting to secondary files with exslt:document and
not actually emitting anything in the specified filename on the command
line (classic for docbook chunked processing). So problem is quite more 
complex than what the bug report seems to assume.

  need to be checked anything related to entities processing is by definition
quite complex, but yes, sure.
