Should we be adding libxslt as a maintainer's prereq in bootstrap.conf?

That is, I think bootstrap.conf should require all packages necessary to 
create a functional tarball from libvirt.git, even if those packages are 
_not_ required to successfully build an already-available tarball.

So that sounds like systemtap is another maintainer prereq.

Sounds like xmllint should be yet another maintainer prereq in 
bootstrap.conf.
