All good questions, and I'm afraid I haven't got a clue what the answer
is.

You should probably ask the DocBook-Apps list, at=20

    docbook-apps@lists.oasis-open.org

The LinuxDoc, KDE, or GNOME folks might also have run in to, and solved
this problem.  I suggest checking their mailing lists as well, more
information at

    http://www.linuxdoc.org/mailinfo.html
    http://www.kde.org/international/index.html
    http://www.gnome.org/resources/mailing-lists.html

Please let us know what you find.
