xslt is installed since a very long time...
But it seems you're right !!

This morning i deleted everything and re-install from scratch and now it works
with gnustep-make in c:/GNUstep, with gcc 3.4.2, without xslt.
(I still cant use --enable-native-objc-exceptions but that's not so important)

But if i install xslt, gnustep-base doesn't build !
(i tried twice as i wanted to be sure :-)

I build xslt from source without any oddity. It is installed by default in
/usr/local - like any other library. And it is found by gnustep-base configure
script :

checking for xml2-config... /usr/local/bin/xml2-config
checking for libxml - version >= 2.3.0... yes
checking libxml/SAX2.h usability... yes
checking libxml/SAX2.h presence... yes
checking for libxml/SAX2.h... yes
checking for xsltApplyStylesheet in -lxslt... yes
checking libxslt/xslt.h usability... yes
checking libxslt/xslt.h presence... yes
checking for libxslt/xslt.h... yes

I still dont understand all the problems i encountered :
Why the old release version couldn't be built ? I'm (almost) sure they used to.

Many thanks !
