jhalfs failure

I've started getting a failure in jhalfs.  I suspect the problem is actually with 
libxml2-2.13.0.

I get: "Error: you need the Docbook XSL stylesheets for running jhalfs" even though I 
have it installed.

When starting, jhalfs does some package checks in common/libs/func_check_version.sh:

   if echo $XML_FILE | xmllint -nonet -noout -postvalid - 2>/dev/null ; then
     check_version "4.5" "4.5" "DocBook XML DTD"
   else
     echo "Error: you need the Docbook XML DTD for running jhalfs"
     exit 1
   fi

   if echo $XML_FILE | xsltproc -nonet -noout - 2>/dev/null ; then
     check_version "current" "current" "DocBook XSL stylesheets"
   else
     echo "Error: you need the Docbook XSL stylesheets for running jhalfs"
     exit 1
   fi

The XML_FILE contains:

   XML_FILE="<?xml version='1.0' encoding='ISO-8859-1'?>
<?xml-stylesheet type='text/xsl' 
href='http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/xhtml/docbook.xsl'?>
<!DOCTYPE article PUBLIC '-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.5//EN'
   'http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.5/docbookx.dtd'>
<article>
   <title>Test file</title>
   <sect1>
     <title>Some title</title>
     <para>Some text</para>
   </sect1>
</article>"

If I create that as a file, xmltest, I get

$ cat xmltest|xsltproc -nonet -noout -
I/O error : failed to load "-": No such file or directory
warning: failed to load external entity "-"
cannot parse -

Commenting out the second 'else' clause above allows jhalfs to work, but it's a hack.
