   From Mats Wichmann:
     - Fix typos in CCFLAGS test. Didn't affect the test itself, but
       didn't correctly apply the DefaultEnvironment speedup.
+    - Try to fix Windows fails on Docbook tests in case xsltproc is found.
+      It's still not certain why this started failing.  On both GitHub
+      Actions and AppVeyor, it's found as part of StrawberryPerl, part of
+      the default install - maybe this wasn't the case before? The xsltproc
+      from choco install is considerably older and may have been more lenient?
+      Anyway, intermittent fails seem caused by something network related,
+      so propagate two xsltproc flags that avoid loading the dtd that were
+      present in three of the 11 "live" tests, but not the other eight.
+      Also, all 11 now pass the test-discovered xslt processor the same
+      way, which was not the case previously.
