Ok, I had a closer look at your files and found some validation errors:

1. bookinfo.xml:
othercredit can't contain any author elements. The content modell is:

othercredit ::=
((personname|
  (honorific|firstname|surname|lineage|othername|affiliation|
   authorblurb|contrib)+),
 (personblurb|email|address)*)

You must put each author's firstname and surname inside an othercredit 
without any author like this:

 <othercredit>
   <firstname>Sebastiaan</firstname>
   <surname>Deckers</surname>
 </othercredit>
 <othercredit>
   <firstname>Dries</firstname>
   <surname>Staelens</surname>
 </othercredit>

2. basics.xml
You have an info element. There is no info element for DocBook V4.x. Typo?

If I correct these errors, the complete document is valid. I would 
recommend that you fix these errors first before you apply any 
stylesheets. :) The stylesheets operate on valid XML input; anything else 
gives unexpected results.

HTH.

Tom
