DESCRIPTION
The lliibbeexxsslltt library is used to provide extensions to XSLT functions.
These extensions come from the EXSLT project
UUSSAAGGEE
To make use of these functions in XSLT the appropriate namespace must
be defined on the xxssll::ssttyylleesshheeeett element. To enable support for them
in lliibbxxsslltt(3) you must call the appropriate functions (listed in the
SYNOPSIS eto) o eitr h etnin. h xl-ofg hl
script can be used to obtain the necessary flags for the pre-processor
and linker. The supported extensions are:

node-sets.
ddiissttiinncctt(()) returns a node-set of all nodes in the first
argument that are not in the seconds argument.
hhaass-ssaammee-nnooddee(()) returns TRUE if there is an intersection between
the two given node-sets.
lleeaaddiinngg(()) returns a node-set of all nodes in the first
argument that precede the first node in the sec-
