Yes.

I don't get an error. I just get a stream of exsl:document's on stdout.
When I use xsltproc -o 'foo.xml' I get the entire stream saved as
'foo.xml' with the exsl:document sections inline. What I'm looking for
is some way to have them saved as external documents.

I think my xsltproc is reasonably up to date?

david x40:~/svn/projects $ xsltproc --version
Using libxml 20624, libxslt 10115 and libexslt 812
xsltproc was compiled against libxml 20622, libxslt 10115 and libexslt 812
libxslt 10115 was compiled against libxml 20622
libexslt 812 was compiled against libxml 20622

Sorry if I'm missing something obvious :-(
