I found my error. I had in my actual code:

 <xsl:for-each select="id(@ref)/@references">
   <xsl:value-of select="."/>
 </xsl:for-each>

So this is why the loop only executed once. I was seeing the id() at the front thinking it was doing the full lookup I was expecting. This also explains why I got the same value as what was in @references. I needed:

 <xsl:for-each select="id(id(@ref)/@references)">
   <xsl:value-of select="."/>
 </xsl:for-each>

thanks
