Beman, this works for me in both the Trunk and release branches.  However, I 
have seen this before: it was due to bbv2 incorrectly quoting some command 
line arguments (putting an argument in ""two sets of quotes""), can you run 
with -d2 so we can see the command lines?

Also make sure that you are using the latest Win32 xsltproc from 
http://www.zlatkovic.com/libxml.en.html rather than the one on the metacomm 
site which is out of date now :-(

HTH, John.
