Or since the output is C++ code, you could just pipe the output through a
pretty priter (with no additional markup), there's lots of free ones
available, one that comes to mind is GNU indent.  Seems like the effort
required to get the XSLT processor to give nice output would be orders of
magnitude more than just applying an external program.
