About libxslt patch:
Changes in  libexslt/exsltexports.h and libxslt/xsltexports.h break 
static only build.

Update in tests/plugins/testplugin.c is fine.  In addition for mingw* 
hosts attached "0001-build-test-plugin-for-mingw-host.patch" is required :
  WIN32_EXTRA_LDFLAGS add no-undefined and this will allow plugin to be 
build as shared library and test pass.
