Sorry, I forgot one detail, if you want to have an "as" attribute 
spelled out then you need to write it as

        <xsl:variable name="FOO" as="document-node()">
          <xsl:document>
            <page>Page number 1</page>
            <page>Page number 2</page>
            <page>Page number 3</page>
            <page>Page number 4</page>
            <page>Page number 5</page>
            <page>Page number 6</page>
            <page>Page number 7</page>
          </xsl:document>
        </xsl:variable>
