It's not working on mastodon, and presumably will fail again on baiji.
I notice that mastodon does not appear to have the presumed location of
the iconv and xslt DLLs in the PATH it sets. That would be a plausible
explanation of the problem ;-) On red_bat these are all in the same bin
directory, but I suspect on baiji and mastodon they are not. I think
these might need to have c:\pgBuild\{libxslt,iconv}\bin added to the
PATH in the buildfarm.conf file, right after where
c:\pgBuild\libxml2\bin is added. (That could also explain why it is
failing at run time rather than at build time).
