When writing xml output on windows the path to the stylesheet isn't
written into xml-stylesheet, only the filename.
Attached is a possible fix which uses GetModuleFileName in the same way
as is done in nmap.cc:2787.
I would like to have done something with the NMAPDATADIR declaration in
nmap_winconfig.h, but honestly don't know what to do with it.  Maybe
this will do for now...
    

How about using nmap_fetchfile to look up nmap.xsl? That would appear to
work for all platforms, without having to use any platform-specific
code. That would make the stylesheet location honor --datadir and
NMAPDIR too, which I think it should.

Can you try that approach and send another patch?
Aye, thanks for the tip.  The attached uses nmap_fetchfile and falls
back to the original behaviour if it fails.  I've tried it on win32 and
linux and it looks good to me.

Thanks, I applied it.

Does anybody know, is it more correct to put "file://" in front of the
XSL stylesheet location when it points to a local file (as it does in
the default case)?
