Add xmlns:exslt="http://exslt.org/common"; to the xsl:stylesheet and then use
 exslt:node-set()

You can also use a trick suggested by David Carlisle, and formulated by Julian Reschke that will provide consistency and, as such, portability across all of the major XSLT processor vendors, providing the ability to use exsl:node-set() inside of MSXML as well. See: http://dpcarlisle.blogspot.com/2007/05/exslt-node-set-function.html for more detail.

On a related note, as of earlier today, adding support for exsl:node-set() has been officially created by and assigned to Alexey Proskuryakov in the WebKit Bugzilla database. My guess is that within a reasonable number of nightly builds we will be enabled to begin the testing process which means that all four major browsers, including Opera, will provide support for exsl:node-set, MSXML via the handy work of David Carlisle and Julian Reschke. See http://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14525 for more detail.
