Could I somehow be implying the declaration you speak of?  The 
invocation of saxon is this:

saxon manual.xml gretlhlp.xsl "tex.math.in.alt=latex"

and gretlhlp.xsl is:

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
            version="1.0">
<xsl:import 
href="/usr/share/sgml/docbook-xsl/htmlhelp/htmlhelp.xsl"/>
<xsl:param name="lang" select="'en'"/>
<xsl:template match="command">
  <xsl:call-template name="inline.monoseq"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:param name="htmlhelp.hhp" select="'gretl.hhp'"/>
<xsl:param name="htmlhelp.chm" select="'gretl.chm'"/>
<xsl:param name="admon.graphics" select="1"/>
<xsl:param name="admon.graphics.extension" select="'.gif'"/>
<xsl:param name="admon.graphics.path">figures/</xsl:param>
<xsl:param name="navig.graphics" select="1"/>
<xsl:param name="graphic.default.extension" select="'gif'"/>
</xsl:stylesheet>

On my system, /usr/share/sgml/docbook-xsl is a symlink: if I point 
it at docbook-xsl-1.59.1 the htmlhelp files are generated without 
complaint; if I point it at docbook-xsl-1.67.0 I get the error with 
character 8220 in the toc file.
