[xsl] Getting equivalence classes on attributes

Hello.  Is there a way to write an XPath expression that will return each
equivalence class on the value of an attribute, i.e. every collection of
nodes whose value for a certain attribute are the same e.g.

<foo att="bar"/>

<foo att="bar" att2="quux"/>

<blah att="bar"/>

<foo att="baz"/>

<foo att="quux"/>

The first three elements would belong to one equivalence class on the
attribute 'att', while the fourth would belong to another, and the fifth
to yet another.  I would want an XPath expression that would return each
of these equivalence classes.  Is this possible?
