I know I fixed this. Basically it needs another port to pre-load
the entities otherwise when they are found missing the xslt tries
to load them at that time. It causes the problem that it works fine
everywhere except inside a no net poudriere.
I think it might have been the same one mentioned here: 

https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports/2015-March/098240.html
and

You need a LIB_DEPENDS on libxslt.so:textproc/libxslt   

We need this documented in the porters handbook.
