fix to accept --maxvars (548 bytes, patch)

fix to accept --maxvars

xsltproc kindly and correctly suggests:

xsltApplyXSLTTemplate: A potential infinite template recursion was detected.
You can adjust maxTemplateVars (--maxvars) in order to raise the maximum number of variables/params (currently set to 15000).

Unfortunately it doesn't work - passing '--maxvars 20000' results in:

warning: failed to load external entity "20000"
cannot parse 20000

Patch attached (and 20000 worked:-).
