Hi Ken,
I appreciate your ideas. Your solution below is certainly very
portable, and should be preferred when portability of stylesheet is
the concern.
But I am only concerned, that if stylesheet is quite large, then to
access the contents of a variable (i.e., this one, <xsl:variable
name="x-values">), we are asking processor to build a large tree (an,
additional one) in memory, which might cause some performance
concerns.
Using node-set function I feel is more memory efficient than, using
document('') (which you wrote).
But certainly, even if node-set function is provided by multiple XSLT
processors, it's likely that it's not portable between processors (as,
it's namespace URI may be different).
The namespace URI I used for node-set, is what is suggested by EXSLT
set of extensions, and it's likely that it will be portable between
processors supporting EXSLT.

The above can be replaced with standard XSLT 1.0 to read the stylesheet file
as a source node tree ...
<xsl:for-each
select="key('x',document('')/*/xsl:variable[(_at_)name='x-values']/v)">
