Note, this trick didn't work so cleanly on my Debian lenny machine,
which complained:

warning: failed to load external entity
"http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/epub/docbook.xsl";
cannot parse http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/epub/docbook.xsl

I eventually was able to build the .epub by using wget to mirror the
chunks of http://docbook.sourceforge.net/... which I needed.
