xsltSetDefaultSecurityPrefs
Description: 
Michael Stahl wrote 2008-09-29 on redland-dev (re Openoffice.org):

...plus, i recently found an additional issue:
raptor's grddl parser's init function calls the libxslt function 
xsltSetDefaultSecurityPrefs, which modifies a global variable in libxslt.
as a result, other parts of our program that use libxslt fail (see [1]).
i'm not sure exactly what to do about this, because i don't know the 
libxslt api. it would be nice if there were some way to set these security

prefs on the actual parsing or transformation function call. no, actually

that would not just be nice, but necessary.
ah, finally found these:
http://xmlsoft.org/XSLT/html/libxslt-security.html#xsltSetCtxtSecurityPrefs
http://xmlsoft.org/XSLT/html/libxslt-transform.html#xsltApplyStylesheetUser
i guess using these would work?
