Well, you can always wrap a xsl:call-template into a
xsl:variable, and call a
function from xsl:sequence.  But more
fundamentally, you are never allowed to
use instructions
requiring final output state (namely, xsl:result-document)
from
within a function or anything else called directly or indirectly
from a
function.
