[plug] Recommendations for XSLT processors?

Hi,

I'm wondering if anyone has any recommendations for XSLT processors that
can be readily installed under Linux (specifically for use under Debian
GNU/Linux alpha/EV67)? xsltproc is too buggy and I'm not getting
anywhere. Unfortunately, some of the stylesheets have been written with
EXSLT extensions and also make use of the xmllint tool. So, I'm looking
for something that will satisfy the following:

 - XSLT 1.0, XPath 1.0 and XInclude 1.0 support.
 - ability to use XML catalogues.
 - xmllint-style utility.
 - support of EXSLT or a significant number of equivalent extensions.
 - 64-bit clean.
 - need not be fast (overnight batch use, not interactive).

I'm going to keep hacking away with libxml2/libxslt to see if anything
can come of it. I think my best bet is currently to install multiple
versions and find which versions work with which stylesheets.
