You may want to look at:

Actually you can, 'xalan' or 'saxon' can be invoked in Makefiles or
you can use 'Apache Ant' for transforming XSL (newer 'Ant' versions
have an Xslt built-in task). In both cases you'll have to have a JVM
installed and reference few jars in your CLASSPATH. I've been happy
with it so far, and I guess the fastest you can get there is trying
'saxon' with 'make'.

xsl_proc = java com.icl.saxon.StyleSheet $(xsl_flags) \
           -o $(out) $(in) $(html_style) $(xsl_params)
http://saxon.sourceforge.net/

xsl_proc = java org.apache.xalan.xslt.Process $(xsl_flags) \
           -in $(in) -xsl $(html_style) -out $(out)
http://xml.apache.org/xalan-j/

Ant (rpm):
