Went with the FXSL String-split-to-words method. Looks like:
-----------
<xsl:variable name="placementDate"> <!-- "4/15/1982" -->
<xsl:call-template name="str-split-to-words">
<xsl:with-param name="pStr"
select="msxsl:node-set($vr//placementDate)" />
<xsl:with-param name="pDelimiters" select="'/'" />
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:variable>
------
and then later
-----
<input type="text" class="MM" id="referralMM">
<xsl:attribute name="value">
<xsl:value-of select="msxsl:node-set($referralDate)/*[1]" /> <!--
"4" -->
</xsl:attribute>
</input>
----
Thanks for all your suggestions.

MSXML does not support exsl tokenize natively, nor does it support the
XSLT 2.0 version. However you can do one of the following:
1. Use FXSL String split to words http://fxsl.sourceforge.net/
http://www.oxygenxml.com/archives/xsl-list/200504/msg00942.html
2. Use an exslt implementation for msxml that supports tokenize
http://www.exslt.org/str/functions/tokenize/index.html
there seems to be one in javascript there by Chris Bayes which I would
expect to be MSXML specific.
3. write your own using javascript, either associated with your own
namespace or using the exslt namespace.
http://www.stylusstudio.com/xsllist/200101/post01420.html
4. Change parser. Saxon's performance has recently outstripped MSXML I
believe so there might not be as much reason to use the latter any
longer.
