If you know Java, you could generate SAX events from your data to make it
appear as an XML stream.  I believe in Michael Kay's Book there is an
example of this.  I think he created a SAX XMLReader class that reads GedCom
files (genealogy files).  You have to use an XSLT processor that can accept
a SAX input stream.  The other option is to convert the file to XML ahead of
time using Perl or Java.
