Thanks for the explanation - now I understand it a little better.

Still, after setting up variables like this:
XML_CATALOG_FILES=${LOCALBASE}/share/xml/docbook/4.2/catalog.xml
SGML_CATALOG_FILES=${LOCALBASE}/share/xml/docbook/4.2/docbook.cat

Attempt to load network entity 
http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/manpages/docbook.xsl 
warning: failed to load external entity
"http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/manpages/docbook.xsl"
cannot parse
http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/manpages/docbook.xsl
[...]

Of course, I have manpages/docbook.xsl in ${LOCALBASE}/share/xsl/docbook
(installed by docbook-xsl port), but how do I feed it to xmlto so it
will not try to fetch via HTTP?

Should I rely on a user building the port to set up XML_CATALOG_FILES
and SGML_CATALOG_FILES properly in advance or can I create catalog at
the port's build time with xmlcatalog?

I did not have chance to look at your PR yet, but it sounds promising.

Thanks.
