The example below shows you get the base URI of the stylesheet when 
using XSLT 1.0.  I've needed this when working with the OASIS

I hope this helps.

~/t/ftemp $ pwd
/Users/admin/t/ftemp
~/t/ftemp $ xslt ihe.xml ihe.xsl

Stylesheet URI: file:/Users/admin/t/ftemp/ihe.xsl

~/t/ftemp $ cat ihe.xsl
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE xsl:stylesheet
[
<!NOTATION xsl SYSTEM "">
<!ENTITY static-base-uri SYSTEM "" NDATA xsl>
]>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
  version="1.0">

<xsl:output method="text"/>

<xsl:template match="/">
  <xsl:variable name="static-base-uri">
    <xsl:for-each select="document('')">
      <xsl:value-of select="unparsed-entity-uri('static-base-uri')"/>
    </xsl:for-each>
  </xsl:variable>
Stylesheet URI: <xsl:value-of select="$static-base-uri"/>
