Instant Saxon uses MS JVM, XSLTProc is exe... My testmachine was
a 850Mhz AMD Duron.

Yes, I have just seen in the source, that the dir class was
changed... So this is not an error. I compared it to my latest
DSSSL builds, and as they were built before the change, this
file contained only one line for the constructor here...

In LibXSLT, the ( is also missing, and there are no spaces
between the funcname and first parameter. I guess this is
because there were spaces in the funcsynopsis version, and there
are no spaces in the source in the methodsyn version...

Actually the index file was named manual.html and not index.html
for both processor, which is an error two.
