In reverse order, on the fn: - good point, I'll remove them.
On the apply templates versus call, I've never been able to get my
head round the apply-templates bit, particular because of the need to
use a mode. I personally read apply-templates as, "something happens
here, but I don't know what" !!
Call templates makes it explicit as to what happens. My personal take
on that bit.
On the problem I'm having, I have put in trace output, to push out
$message at each stage. It is output correctly, however, the value-of
selections from $message/ give the value, or don't give the value
depending on whether or not its the compound xsl or the single stage
xsl

Passing xml as parameters
I have a problem with passing xml fragments as parameters.
you'd probably find all the xsl a lot easier if you used apply-templates (in
a mode) rather than named templates everywhere to which you need to pass
input as a parameter, as essentially, you are implementing apply templates
by hand, but still...
cmf-html appears to be written to be called like this:
<xsl:call-template name="cmf-html">
<xsl:with-param name="message" select="trade"/>
</xsl:call-template>
passed a trade element, but in your "domino" version it is being passed a
document node, perhaps that explains the difference?
Also note that you never need to declare
xmlns:fn="http://www.w3.org/2005/xpath-functions";
as you can always refer to the built in functions unprefixed, count() rather
than fn:count().
