That's true. I've tested the code with msxml3, saxon and xalan and only
saxon displayed
<div class="body_subhead">Linked Text</div>

But differences doesn't stop here, in saxon and msxml I get
<div class="body"><a href="a" class="body">A</a></div>
But with xalan I get
<div class="body">
<a href="a" class="body">A</a>
</div>

Regarding to the body_subhead case, on the template named d1 change the
<xsl:otherwise> like this:
Before:
      <xsl:otherwise>
        <div class="{$divClass}">
          <xsl:value-of select="$s"/>
After:
      <xsl:otherwise>
        <div class="{$divClass}">
          <xsl:if test="$s"><xsl:value-of select="$s"/></xsl:if>

This will make msxml and xalan to display 
<div class="body_subhead">Linked Text</div>
