I think it depends on the likelihood that a distro has xmlto so old that
it does not understand --stringparam yet it uses stylesheet so new that
setting the parameter makes a positive difference (either it gives the
full URL or at least squelches the "You should define the parameter"
noise) in the output.

I am guessing that the answer would be that is a very unlikely combination
and not worth worrying about it, but I've been wrong before in this exact
area ;-)
