  how do I access the contents of a variable (or param) whose name is
  computed?

You can't. Variable references have to just consist of the literal
variable name (in common with most other programming languages)

If you said what effect you were trying to achieve no doubt someone
would say how to do that in xslt.

perhaps something like

<xsl:param name="table.frame">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="@frame='void'">border: none;</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="@frame='box'">border:  1pt solid black;</xsl:when>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:param>

 <table style="{$table.frame}">....
