Description hjs 2008-07-25 12:25:00 UTC 
due to the windows path limitation (260 chars), xsltproc isn't able to create
the output file under certain conditions.

Comment 2 hjs 2008-07-25 12:40:03 UTC 
for the record:
the error message by xsltproc is simply "I/O Error" - which leaves some room for
guessing.

the error is caused by too long path strings during conversion of the filename
to a file URL (making absolute; normalizing). the attached patch works around it
by having dmake do the normalization.

unfortunately, dmake shows similar effects on it's own target normalization -
but that's a different issue...
