Uhm. Chuck. THANK YOU! That got me there. Have a $beverage on me!
Right, I know I've now a tarnished reputation for having my Â“homeworkÂ” ;-) 
in on time, but I mean it this time..this is nearly ready to be released. 
Tomorrow evening I'll release test versions of libxml2 and libxslt (versions 
2.5.7 and 1.0.27 respectively).
If any hungry DocBook &c testers wanna have a go, and those people who were 
complaining that the current xml/xstl libs were too "old", you can use 
setup.exe to fetch 'em via anonymous ftp
 ftp://anonftp.ubertales.co.uk/pub/ports/cygwin/
All you have to do is launch setup.exe and type (copy/paste) the above URL 
into the mirror selection dialogue and *make sure* you hit the 
button...whats it called..Hmmm..the Add button, once you have typed in the 
above *URL* into the 'User URL' field. I'll try an have that server up by 
end of owffice hours (1700 GMT) so we can get these out ASAP.

PS- I nearly forgot, BIG Thanks to Robert for all of your hard work on these 
pesky libs. Without what you did these new packages wouldn't be here...cos 
I'm lazy..only Kidding! :-)
