It should be selected=selected (shich may be serialised as just selected
in html)

that is a bug in your XSLT engine. If you are using the XML output type
<xsl:output method="xml"/>
which is what you want to use, given your requirement to generate well
formed xml) then this attribute minimisation should never happen.
if you are using the html output
<xsl:output method="html"/>
then 
<option selected="selected">
may be (and probably would be) serialised as
<option selected>
but
<option selected = "true">
should be serialised as
<option selected = "true">
