change the top level xsl:stylesheet to say version="2.0"
and add:

<xsl:function  name="msxsl:node-set" as="document-node()">
<xsl:param name="x"/>
<xsl:sequence select="$x"/>
</xsl:function>

saxon6 and msxml will process in forward-compatible mode and that will
be OK, saxon 7 will define this function as an identity.

It will process in native xslt2 mode which may or may not be OK,
depending on what you are doing, you may need to persuade it back to
backward compatibility mode if that can be done without harming
compatibility. (One way woul dbe to _only-) have the above definition in
the top level xslt2 stylesheet and have taht stylesheet import or
include the previous stylesheet that has a top level version=1.0.
