No, but it is expected that whitespace text nodes are removed from the
stylesheet while it is being compiled. If you want to generate whitespace
text nodes, use xsl:text or xsl:value-of.
Or of course you can use xml:space preserve eg:
<xsl:variable name="var" xml:space="preserve">
<elem/>
</xsl:variable>
Here $var will contain 3 nodes with the whitespace nodes preserved,
instead of the default 1.
