I missed on the whole discussion, but to enable/disable the <?xml ...?> 
header part, you can do the following:

<xsl:output indent="yes" method="xml"  encoding="UTF-8" 
omit-xml-declaration="no" />

But, if you haven't got this statement *and* your method is "xml", the 
default value for "omit-xml-declaration" is "no", meaning, that the XML 
declaration, by default, should be output by the processor. Setting it 
to "yes" will suppress the output of the xml declaration.
