The answer for the DocBook stylesheet location identificaton is to use XML catalogs! No need to muck around with autconf for this. See: http://www.sagehill.net/xml/docbookxsl/Catalogs.html and more specifically to locate XSL stylesheets: http://www.sagehill.net/xml/docbookxsl/Catalogs.html#d0e1733 By default xsltproc will look for catalogs in /etc/xml/catlog, so if you set that up to point to right place(s) for the installed DocBook files, your user's won't need to modify their environment at all.
