Perl is almost useless without the extensions written in C.
Now that's what I call flamebait! Are you sure you really mean this Paul?
Semantics of XSLT constructions is powerful enough + XSLT has one serious advantage comparing to other 'traditional' languages - it is a first nice mix of dataflow with processing code. Maybe there are / were better attempts - I don't know.
I would vote for Omnimark, as a user of it.
XSLT isn't worth a pile of beans without regular expressions, even if it has a lot of nice "structural" functionality.
