N.P.

This can be done mechanically:

 >    <xsl:apply-templates select="B[X[@val=$match_v1]][X[@val=$match_v2]]"/>

  <xsl:variable name="x" select="B[X[@val=$match_v1]][X[@val=$match_v2]]"/>

   <xsl:apply-templates select="node()[not(count(.|$x) = count($x))]"/>


Of course, in XPath 2.0 one will use the except operator:

   <xsl:apply-templates select="node() except $x"/>
