If in doubt, read the spec:
http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt20/#message
"The xsl:message instruction causes the creation of a new document, which is
typically serialized and output to an implementation-defined destination."
The output of xsl:message is XML, which is then serialized. This is why
special characters such as < and & are escaped.

Subject: [xsl] Escaping of xsl:text in xsl:message
Hi
With Saxon 8.7.1j, the following code:
<xsl:message>
<xsl:text> -> </xsl:text>
</xsl:message>
results to the following text being outputed to the standard output:
- & g t ;
(with the entity ref letters space-separated to be sure to
pass the mail systems).
Is it expected? If it is, why? Is it
implementation-dependant? If it is, do you expect that such
escaping occurs within xsl:message?
Regards,
