What is the best way to use XSLT 2.0 with PHP?

This is my second question on the site, like always, I've spent several hours reading a lot of related questions, the 2 most relevant are:

And

I focused mainly on the second option since php already have a XSLTProcessor library, but sadly it only supports XSLT 1.0 and I'm looking 2.0 support, so it seemed to be the right option, but after installing PEAR and trying to install XML_XSLT2Processor, and reading many articles(1, 2, 3, the ones I currently have open about the topic) and AltovaXML gone commercial, and PEAR being so buggy, I decided to go with the first option.

But I don't really know Java, yet I'm gonna give it a try, but before starting with this I decided to ask first (plus the posts are a little outdated).

Isn't there any other better way to manage XSLT 2.0 with PHP?

The question is timely because last week we launched Saxon/C, a port of Saxon compiled to Intel machine code with APIs for C, C++, and PHP. It's early days yet (an Alpha 0.1 release), but if you don't mind being at the bleeding edge, you might give it a try. And of course we welcome your feedback.
