  ah.  interesting.  you give the doctype as:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">

  while xsltproc[1] gives:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
  "http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-html401-19991224/loose.dtd">

  which breaks the images.  hm, I'm not sure if you can omit the
  URI[2].  maybe I'll fiddle with this and see what happens.  the big
  issue is that the image breaks with the doctype xsltproc returns,
  since setting the doctype yourself isn't trivial, since it's not
  valid XML, and can't be used in the xsl-document.  maybe one can
  fiddle with CDATA or something?  hmpf.  not my cup of tea.

  well, I'm not sure what is missing from that document.  it is as you
  can see produced with the standard xsl.

  I totally agree, but this is the standard Gentoo layout.  I'd be
  _happy_ to fix some visual aspects like this, and remove some table
  usage, and maybe some other small fixes, if people are interested.


  [1] xsltproc returns html doctypes when given a proper xsl:output,
      like this:
        <xsl:output encoding="iso-8859-15"
                    method="html"
	            version="4.01"
                    media-type="text/html"
                    omit-xml-declaration="yes"
                    indent="yes"/>

  [2] W3.org on HTML version info:
      <url: http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/struct/global.html#version-info >
