I also use installation-guide as a good guidance.

I see.
Somehow, IPA fonts chokes on many characters producing PDF with many
dropped characters for many characters, most notably for +U30FC. I can
guess this may be due to encoding problem but ... let's leave this
problem for now.
So VL-fonts seems to be better choice. With your xetex_param.xsl,
this doesn't happen and remaining problems are few awkward characters:
Build stdin.pdf
Character U+2194 (↔) not in font '[lmroman10-regular]:mapping=tex-text;'
Character U+21D4 (⇔) not in font '[lmroman10-regular]:mapping=tex-text;'
Character U+2500 (─) not in font '[lmroman10-regular]:mapping=tex-text;'
As for Chinese, your xetex_param.xsl causes:
Build stdin.pdf
Character U+2194 (↔) not in font '[lmroman10-regular]:mapping=tex-text;'
Character U+21D4 (⇔) not in font '[lmroman10-regular]:mapping=tex-text;'
'debian-reference.zh-cn.pdf' successfully built
Oh, with my old xetex_param.xsl, chinese zh-cn and zh-tw have problem
handling ndash (+U2013) with arphic fonts. (It's missing in that font)
Above mentioned problem of installation-guide way can be fixed by moving
out following from <xsl:choose>
<xsl:text>\setmainfont{FreeSerif} </xsl:text>
<xsl:text>\setsansfont{FreeSans} </xsl:text>
<xsl:text>\setmonofont{FreeMono} </xsl:text>
So installation-guide seems better choice as baseline. My concern is
that GNU Free fonts is not as easy to distinguish O and 0. I will try
both to check how they come out.
Also, I remember CJ people like SanSerif for their main text of the CJK
character.
As for pt, I think I need to do divide and find to the offending string
in PT PO file. If I reset PT into no PO string, it creates proper PDF.
This needs a bit more work.
Other problem is "-mark. It used to look ``...'' but now ''...''.
