That sounds like the expected behaviour of any XML parser, doesn't it?
the input "<![CDATA[ < ]]>" is identical to the input " &lt; "
and when serialising the XML containing that string, a system may
use either form, seeing as they are equivalent.

Some systems, (including the DOM) do carry extra information about
strings coming from CDATA sections, but such information is explictly
not part of the input to an XSL system.
