Mike,
I remember, in those good old days, you had a saxon extention
equivalent to the current day's  xsl:result-document ...
something like :
 <saxon:output href="{$file}">
  </saxon:output>

Also, With the XSLT1, you can do the following :

1. Write a java function that will use FileIO classes to serialize.
2. Use that as an extention function in your XSLT . To know how to do this..
Read this article
http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-12-2001/jw-1221-xslt.html?page=2
on how to plugin java code into XSLT.
You will be warned by many here that the approach of  using java
-extentions may not be all that great ( not portable )

But the choice of using xslt1, is also not great and reflects the fact
that unfortunately you are restricted to XSLT1

So those were the options anyway..
