I have two problems:
(1) How should I name system XML catalog? I prfere
${LOCALBASE}/share/xml/catalog, because it is default XML catalog
for libxml2 (my favorite), but this one used for SGML-style
catalog
(2) How should I add ``delegate'' records to systen XML catalog --
I could write simple perl script (error-prone, of course, but
without any modules), but -CURRENT system doesn't have perl now
:(
