&#xA0; or U+00A0 is a non-breaking space. Java's trim() routines
don't recognize it as a space.

This is (probably) one of the bytes of an UTF-8 encoded non-breaking
space as displayed by a non-UTF-8 aware editor (well, the most common
case).

Try
 <xsl:text> </xsl:text>

You might want to read what the XSLT spec says about whitespace
stripping, and probably a bit more on XML basics.
