It's worked before for me with docbook-xml > 4.2.

I always start clean by deleting all of bin.v2. But for my configuration 
there is no bin.v2/boostbook.jam.

I have no problems setting up the win32 versions, and I suspect I'd have 
the same problems in cygwin.

As you can see from my other post the tools are set up as might be 
expected. And I'm using the latest, as of a few weeks ago, xsltproc.

C:\DevRoots\Boost\boost\tools\quickbook\doc>xsltproc -V
Using libxml 20701, libxslt 10124 and libexslt 813
xsltproc was compiled against libxml 20701, libxslt 10124 and libexslt 813
libxslt 10124 was compiled against libxml 20701
libexslt 813 was compiled against libxml 20701
