Ah, and the same thing regarding libxslt. The docs say we support 1.1.12 and
later, but 1.1.12 to .14 actually crash. Funny enough, 1.1.11 works fine, but
I still think we can ask users to use 1.1.15 or later. It will soon be two
years old (sept 2005).

That would make the requirements for lxml 1.3

    libxml2  2.6.20 or later
    libxslt  1.1.15 or later
