So, you want to match the first head element in each fragment, or the
first in $mydoc?

If the first in each fragment
    <xsl:template match="head[not(precding::head])" priority="10">
      this is first
and
    <xsl:template match="head[preceding::head]">
      not the first

If you want only the first in $Mydoc, that information isn't available
to XSLT when you pass just a fragment, so maybe add an XSLT parameter
to say, first=yes.
