Description

In order to get the documentation to build on MacOS X, I had to make this adjustment:

In xdocs/sources/make-xalan.sh, replace:

"${XALANCMD}" \

with

export DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH=${BUILDPATH}/c/lib:$DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH
"${XALANCMD}" \

We need to know what the BUILDPATH is though. Could this script file be renamed to make-xalan.sh.in and generated by configure with the correct build path embedded?

While this is an issue on MacOS X, it's likely also an issue on Linux and BSD, where LD_LIBRARY_PATH needs setting to allow the Xalan binary to run. Unless that's already taken care of, and DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH could be set there as well.
