RE: [xslt] Extending EXSLT support to get the crypto part

["Xyster !" <xyster_ hotmail com>]

Would it be possible to completely remove the dependency, including from 
libexslt, if crypto is not required?
OpenSSL is huge and, I would imagine, irrelevent to 90% of XSL usage 
scenarios. It would be nice to be able keep the extensions  without having 
to install OpenSSL.

Thanks,

Yuval
