Does that give me a way to use the same definition in multiple XPath

 Yes, just have in a separate my.xpath file a map from the names of
the functions to their corresponding function items.

Then in XSLT read the my.xpath file and define a variable that gets
this evaluated, using the <xsl:evaluate> instruction.

Exactly as done in the Balisage paper I quated somewhere at the start
of this thread.
