Subject: libxslt 1.0.13-1 stability problems

I've experiencing stability problems with libxslt 1.0.13-1.  I'm frequently
receiving segmentation faults when running xsltproc as follows:

xsltproc --catalogs --output foo.html
/home/administrator/DocBook/docbook-xsl-1.55.0/xhtml/chunk.xsl book.xml

So far I've been able to work around each occurrence by rearranging my
document, but that gets annoying before long.  So I downloaded the source
for libxml2 2.4.25 and libxslt 1.0.21 from xmlsoft.org and attempted to
build my own binaries, but I was unable to get libxml2 to build.  It
appeared to compile fine, but when I did a 'make install' it died while
invoking libtool and spit out the following:

/bin/sh ./libtool --mode=link gcc  -g -O2 -Wall  -o xmllint.exe  xmllint.o
./libxml2.la  -lz  -lm
gcc -g -O2 -Wall -o xmllint.exe xmllint.o  ./.libs/libxml2.a -lz
xmllint.o: In function `xmlHTMLEncodeSend':
/home/administrator/libxslt/libxml2-2.4.25/xmllint.c:273: undefined
reference to `_imp__xmlGenericError'
/home/administrator/libxslt/libxml2-2.4.25/xmllint.c:273: undefined
reference to `_imp__xmlGenericErrorContext'
/home/administrator/libxslt/libxml2-2.4.25/xmllint.c:274: undefined
reference to `_imp__xmlFree'
xmllint.o: In function `xmlHTMLPrintFileInfo':
/home/administrator/libxslt/libxml2-2.4.25/xmllint.c:289: undefined

/home/administrator/libxslt/libxml2-2.4.25/xmllint.c:289: undefined
reference to `_imp__xmlGenericErrorContext'
[...more of the same...]

I'm hoping someone has already walked this path and can save me the time it
will take to debug this linker problem.

I'm using:
    Windows 2000 SP3
    Cygwin 1.3.12-4

Mike
