Indeed, especially seeing as asciidoc and the xsl toolchain are the  
trickiest build dependencies to install. If all that could be  
replaced by a single simple script like this one then that would be  
awesome, and probably more maintainable in the long run seeing as it  
would eliminate those intermittent breakages caused by changes in  
third-party tools.
