I'm not aware of anyone who has implemented this in XSLT,and i don't
think Saxon implemets it directly. A quick search showed Stroom
includes a native implementation,for what it's worth.

However given that you can read a file or string in XSLT now, including
binary files, and have string-to-codepoints, it's presumably possible
to write your own.

(i'd have a go but am a bit maxed out with consulting work right now)
