I would write it as

<xsl:variable name="thing" type="xs:string"
select="string-join(for $t in tokenize(., ',') return concat('&quot;', $t, '&quot;'), ',')"/>


i.e avoid construction of text nodes, keep it all in terms of atomic values.

<xsl:variable name="thing">"<xsl:value-of
select="replace(.,',',concat($quot,',',$quot))"/>"</xsl:variable> and
the value of the variable $quot is obvious.

If I were to make $thing a typed variable what would it be.
