Actually, they're explicitly NOT part of GNOME.  They don't use any
GNOME libs (not even glib, the lowest possible layer of GNOME).  They
just happen to be hosted on the GNOME.org CVS server, and they're used
by a lot of GNOME projects.  KDE is using libxml/libxslt for their help
stuff now, so we're really not the only ones.  

If folks have specific problems with getting an xslt processor working,
I can probably help you out.  Or you can hang out for a week or two, and
the GNOME2 release candidate will likely ship and set up libxslt for
you.
