An include path can be passed to xsltproc at the command line. We do this
for the combined documentation by adding an implicit dependency to the
boostbook target. You can see this in the jamfile at:

https://github.com/boostorg/boost/blob/master/doc/Jamfile.v2

You can see that it has both a dependency and implicit-dependency for each
included quickbook document. IIRC the dependency is to build the quickbook
file, the implicit-dependency is to add the destination to the include path.
