The format and destination of xsl:message output are entirely
implementation-defined, so you need to ask the question in relation to a
particular product.

If you're using Saxon, for example, you can ask for xsl:message output to be
serialized using a TextEmitter rather than an XmlEmitter. (That is, using
the TEXT output method rather than the XML output method).
