For my ant task, just including the catalog in the path worked?
<path id="xslt1.processor.classpath">
<pathelement path="${java}/${xslt1_jar}"/> <!-- Saxon jar -->
<pathelement path="${java}/${resolver_jar}"/> <!-- resolver jar -->
<pathelement path="${dbsaxonextensions}"/> <!-- saxon65.jar -->
<pathelement path="${java}/${xerces_impl_jar}"/> <!-- xinclude -->
<pathelement path="${data}/sgml"/> <!-- for catalogManager.properties -->
</path>
