This piece of the puzzle I've solved - XSLTC is a variant of Xalan, from
the same project. The original Xalan is an interpreter, XSLTC is a
recast of the same code as a compiler, creating output "translets".

I picked up Micheal Kay's latest XSLT book on the Version 2.0 extensions
the other week, so maybe this is the way for me to go.

Thanks for the pointer,
