Perhaps this should be documented on the BoostBook "Getting Started" 
page? Along with the fact (if it's still true) that you have to delete 
catalog.xml for changes to the configuration file to take effect, and 
that if any existing .html files in the doc\html directory are 
read-only, (e.g. because cvs, or perhaps Tortoise CVS, makes them read 
only when you do a cvs checkout), BoostBook won't replace them?

I re-downloaded and reinstalled libxslt and related libraries and now it 
seems to be working. No doubt I'll have some questions about how to use 
it, but that will have to wait until I actually do.

Thanks for the help,
