using document('') causes the stylesheet document to be parsed again as
input whereas using xsl:variable you just pick up the nodes from the
initial parse of the stylesheet. (This assumes that node-set is
effectively a free operation, if it implies a copy then there is an
additioanl code in node set that would have to be balanced)
