  Hum, the True Way IMHO would be to define a libexslt.pc.in
like the libxslt.pc.in, make sure it's plugged into configure.in 
and installation script of libxslt and use it in your friend's 
configure.in package check rule.
  that sounds small enough that making a bugzilla entry is probably
more resource consuming than writing the thing, can you verify the
enclosed patch produces a working libexslt.pc ?
