This version of libxslt is bound to the latest version of libxml2 in sid, and the previous one breaks with this latest version of libxml2. Thus if you want to prevent libxslt from entering into testing, you have to do the same for libxml2, which is another story, considering the reverse dependencies on it. The current version of libxml2 in sarge is not recommended for release for several reasons (leaks, bugs...), fixed in the version currently in sid. On the other hand, I see no huge reverse dependency list on db2latex-xsl. While having a broken package is unfortunate, why blocking others instead of trying to fix it ? (If you'd provide some more informations, i'd come with a fix quite easily, i think it's a matter of replacing some xsl:include by xsl:import).
