perhaps, depending on what a b c really are:
I was assuming they were element names. If so use
<xsl:variable name="i" select="index-of($seq/node-name(), QName('b'))"/>

<xsl:variable name="i" select="index-of($seq,b)[1]"/>
- everything before the first b
select="$seq[position() lt $i]
- everything from the first b to the end
select="$seq[position() ge $i]
- the position of the first b?
select="$i"
