Well, which XSLT processor do you use, which XSLT version?

With XSLT 2.0 you could define a key

<xsl:key name="flaws" match="Flaws" use="@pofis-number"/>

and then write a template

<xsl:template match="Stamp">
  <xsl:copy>
    <xsl:apply-templates select="@*, node(), key('flaws', 
@pofis-number, doc('file2.xml'))/node()"/>
  </xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>

together with identity transformation template (or XSLT 3.0 xsl:node 
on-no-match="shallow-copy").
