yes, i got the following to work:
<xsl:template name="foo">
<xsl:for-each select="ancestor-or-self::*">
<xsl:text>/</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="name()"/>
</xsl:for-each>
<xsl:text>@</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="name()"/>
</xsl:template>
and since i *know* that everything i am interested in is an attribute, i
can make progress now.
That's __still__ not right: you need /@ not @
