It's not actually a grouping problem as commonly understood.

You need to process the attributes one at a time, recursively:

<xsl:template match="p[@*]">
<xsl:variable name="temp">
<p>
<xsl:copy-of select="remove(@*, 1)"/>
<xsl:element name="{name(@*[1])}">
<xsl:copy-of select="child::node()"/>
</xsl:element>
</p>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:apply-templates select="$temp"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="p[not(@*)]">
<xsl:sequence select="."/>
</xsl:template>
