This is related to the xml:base attribute which is defined in the W3C XML Base recommendation <A HREF="http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlbase/.">http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlbase/.</A>
<BLOCKQUOTE>

The attribute <TT>xml:base </TT><A HREF="http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlbase/#dt-must">may</A> be inserted in XML documents to specify a base URI other
than the base URI of the document or external entity.

I found on the net a stylesheet that does the same thing as xorg.xsl:

Our xorg stylesheet is calling an "add-xml-base" template that does not exist. In the above stylesheet found on the next, this template is defined in-line in the file.
<BLOCKQUOTE>
<PRE>
<TT><xsl:template name="add-xml-base"></TT>
<TT> <xsl:if test="not(@xml:base)"></TT>
<TT> <xsl:variable name="base"></TT>

When I build xorg-docs, I always get this warning:
<BLOCKQUOTE>
<PRE>
WARNING: cannot add @xml:base to node set root element. Relative paths may not work.

There must be some differences in the docbook xls software packages or the the version of the xsltproc that we use.<BR>
<BR>
If you have run into this, most likely others will. Other packages such as libSM would use the new version of xorg.xsl as well. Does it fail the same way?<BR>
</BLOCKQUOTE>
Just wondering if you had the same problem with other documents.<BR>
<BLOCKQUOTE TYPE=CITE>
<BR>
In any case, we need more users testing as there are quite a variety of xsl packages out there.<BR>
