Earlier, I have successfully invoked a SOAP service using this method.
The XSLT 2.0 stylesheet made the SOAP calls, using Saxon 8.0.

In my case also, SOAP envelope was wrapped in a variable like this:

<xsl:variable name="SoapEnvelope">
  <env:Envelope ...

  </env:Envelope>
</xsl:variable>

I don't remember exactly, but I think I used write(java.lang.String
str) method of java.io.OutputStreamWriter class (from within the XSLT
stylesheet) to make the SOAP calls.
