you can't: all variable bindings are scoped to the element that the
variable binding appears in.


The "return" value of a template is teh entire result tree fragment that
it constructs, you can access that by placing it in a variable
<xsl:variable name="x">
 <xsl:call-template name="subtemp"/>
</xsl:variable>

Then use <xsl:value-of select="$x" /> 

If you need to use just part of the returned fragment, then if your
processor has an xx:node-set extension you can use

<xsl:value-of select="xx:node-set($x)/a/b/c" />
