xsl:preserve-space has no effect on nodes in a stylesheet.
For XSLT2 thi sis implicit in that there are separate sections for
stylesheets and source documents, and
http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt20/#stylesheet-stripping
does not mention preserve-space

For XSLT 1 it's expressed a little differently but it does say

  For stylesheets, the set of whitespace-preserving element names consists of just xsl:text.
  For source documents, the set of whitespace-preserving element names is
  specified by xsl:strip-space and xsl:preserve-space 

so again xsl:preserve space has no effect in your example.

David
