I'm interested in a stylesheet that will render another stylesheet

This is very straightforward ... utilize the <xsl:namespace-alias> instruction. You use a placebo URI in your stylesheet and the result tree is built aliasing the URI of XSLT in place of the placebo.

Is there a publicly available stylesheet which will aid in rendering another
stylesheet?

Co-incidentally, yes, but not by my original design. It is described in our book on XSLT (ISBNs below), though it isn't in the free downloadable excerpt from our web site of our electronic rendition.

It is, however, available in the free downloadable PDF excerpt of chapter 5 from the Prentice Hall paper rendition, because of the chapter that was chosen to make freely available (follow the "look inside" link):

I hope this helps.
