As Mike said (and you must surely see when you run
any example) you
_only_ have access to the value: All entity
references are replaced by
the entities they reference by an XML parser before
XSLT starts.
So if you define the entity n to be abc
<x>&n;</x> appears to xslt as <x>abc</x>.

If the entity is defined but not used then you have
no access to it from XSLT.
