Unfortunately, jade is the tool of choice.  I don't run -current, so 
haven't had a chance to test out jade with the new GCC.

However, could you take a look at OpenJade?  It's not in the ports tree
yet (should you want to submit a port I'll get it committed), and is a
continuation of the Jade codebase after the original author (James Clark)
moved on to other things.

There's an OpenJade home page at

    http://www.netfolder.com/DSSSL/

and information about the OpenJade CVS repository at 

    http://jade-cvs.avionitek.com/

I hope that helps.
