Note that this would require a schema-aware processor for the full
datatype library - a basic XSLT processor must only support a subset.

What's XLINQ?
I know of Erik from PARSEC.
I had some bad experiences trying to figure out how to do things with
parsec (I was trying to add namespace support to HaXML in order to
write an XSLT processor in Glasgow Parallel Haskell - I'll try this
again one day in Eiffel).
