problem with style task in ant 1.6

hi,

trying to switch from ant 1.5.1 to 1.6.0 I noticed a change of behaviour with 
the style task.

I basically use it for generating the documentation for projects via the 
docbook xsl stylesheets using a customisation layer, which just sets some 
parameters and imports the docbook.xsl stylesheet.

This worked fine with 1.5.1, but with 1.6.0 the stylesheets that are included 
by docbook.xsl are no longer resolved relatively to it, but to the directory 
executing ant.

A workaround was to put my customisation stylesheets within the directory of 
the docbook stylesheets, then the includes/imports are resolved correctly, but 
I want to avoid to mix them up.

Thats probably more a TrAX / URI-resolving issue, but maybe somebody here can 
give me some pointers

TIA,
Markus

Generally the use of xmlcatalog should solve the problem.
In this case, the location of the docbook stylesheets is customizable by 
a property.

Looks like that:
build.xml: (DOCBOOK_HOME has to be set)
   <xslt
	...

	style="mydocbook.xsl>
     <xmlcatalog>
         <dtd publicId="-//CT42//ANT docbook-html"
              location="${DOCBOOK_HOME}/html/docbook.xsl"/>
     </xmlcatalog>
   </xslt>

mydocbook.xsl:
   ...

   <!-- import the original docbook stylesheet via ant xmlcatalog -->
   <xsl:import href="-//CT42//ANT docbook-html"/>
   ...


Works fine for me and is much more felxible.
