Yes, I've had to do it recently. There are 2 changes that are needed (you
don't see the need for the second one yet because it will only arise once
the first one is fixed):
1. You need to upgrade to libxslt 1.1.34 or just cherry-pick this commit:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxslt/-/commit/b93a4d03a204dcb55a7b6341cef6f03e3eee291d
2. Apply my patch, which isn't yet integrated into the upstream, from
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxslt/-/merge_requests/24/diffs

This is really surprising. I've just assumed that these problems are due
to some compiler changes, because that's the only thing which made sense to
me, but I didn't even bother to check this. I probably should do it, but in
the meanwhile the fixes are above.
And, of course, I'd still like to _really_ fix this by switching to using
our own libxslt version from the submodule, as I've recently proposed. I
doubt I'm going to be able to do it today, but if you can wait until
tomorrow, I should be able to have it working by then, I think -- but
please let me know if you're waiting for it, so that I could move this task
to the front of my TODO queue.
Thanks,
