I took the liberty to backport Bob's changes regarding base.dir from the EPUB3 
stylesheet(s) to the EPUB2 stylesheet. :) This is committed to revision 9749.

It should still be compatible with the old behaviour: If you don't change 
base.dir, it will save all the files in the current directory. However, if you 
specify the parameter base.dir then all files will be written to that 
directory.

I've tested both behaviours with epubcheck 3.0 and it hasn't complained so 
far. :)

Would be nice, if someone could test that. Thanks!
