Yes, QtWebKit currently does not build with the libxslt based implementation.

I agree that our XSLT processor is currently less-functioning but the main
reason behind using it in QtWebKit is to change that. :) When it's utilised in
QtWebKit, we will be getting more user input and thus can get things fixed
upstream sooner.

Another point is that libxslt is just another dependency for Qt (if it was to
ship QtWebKit with libxslt enabled by default). :) That is also why Qt has its
own XMLTokenizer implementation using QXmlStreamReader rather than libxml2, I
guess.
