I have it on reasonably good authority (somebody at a high level at Altova) that the internal XSL engine used in XML Spy 5.* for debugging is a variant of Saxon, not of MSXML. I haven't done any experiments to prove this to myself, but many of the behaviors I have seen (e.g., white space handling) are rather like Saxon's behaviors and not MSXML's.

Hope this helps,
   Jim
