Several of the previous commits have been bumping the minimum supported version of docbook-xsl and dropping various workarounds. Most recently, we made the minimum be 1.73.0.
In INSTALL, we claim that with 1.73, one needs a certain patch in contrib/patches/. There is no such patch. It was added in 2ec39edad9 ("INSTALL: add warning on docbook-xsl 1.72 and 1.73", 2007-08-03) and dropped in 9721ac9010 ("contrib: remove continuous/ and patches/", 2013-06-03).
Rather than resurrecting version 1.73 and the patch and testing them, just raise our minimum supported docbook-xsl version to 1.74.
