well too bad, either the processor expands them or it isn't a conforming
XMl system. Expanding entity references is what XMl parsers do.

No conforming XSLT system will do that (or even see the entity reference
which will just be character 160 by the time the XML parser passes 
the source tree to the xsl system)
