Great, this looks like a definite improvement. Should we be respecting
more DOCBOOK_XSL_* variables than just 172, then? I.e.,:

DOCBOOK_XSL_173, etc?

I don't know that we need to cover _every_ version, but if we can have
specific knobs for individual features (like ASCIIDOC_NO_ROFF), then
maybe it makes sense to aggregate the settings for those knobs for a few
common versions.
