I think it depends on the likelihood that a distro has xmlto so old that
it does not understand --stringparam yet it uses stylesheet so new that
setting the parameter makes a positive difference (either it gives the
full URL or at least squelches the "You should define the parameter"
noise) in the output.

openSUSE 11.2, for example.  Its xmlto has a non-standard --xsltopts
option that passes its argument down to xsltproc.

Ok, as I said that I've been wrong before in this area ;-)

I don't think I will have much time for git today, and it would be
appreciated if somebody can work on this and send a tested patch that
applies cleanly on top of 'maint' to implement the @@MAN_BASE_URL@@
replacement from manpage-base.xsl.in to manpage-base.xsl as Todd suggested
earlier.
