Because we want to avoid too dependencies, and because DOMC is small, we build
it here and link it in statically. The 'prepare-libraries.sh' shell script
decompresses the library tars and patches them to work with rtfx.

+RTFX used to use Sablotron, but because they don't major on their DOM (all about
+XSLT) it's extremely slow when used with large in memory DOMs under certain
+conditions. Because of this in some cases it would take 10 minutes to for RTFX
+to convert a 3 or 4 meg RTF file.
