Doing case-insensitive operations in XSLT isn't easy. Anyhow, you can put the uppercase and lowercase strings into variables $u and $l, that will make the code a tad more readable.

Oh yeah. Just make the template a bit less greedy

  <xsl:template name="highlight">
    <xsl:param name="label" select="@label"/>
    <xsl:param name="text" select="normalize-space($string)"/>
    <xsl:choose>
      <xsl:when test="contains($text, ' ')">
        <xsl:variable name="current" select="substring-before($text, ' ')"/>
        <xsl:choose>
          <xsl:when test="contains($label, $current)">
            <xsl:call-template name="highlight">
              <xsl:with-param name="label"  select="substring-before($label, $current)"/>
              <xsl:with-param name="text" select="$text"/> <!-- change this -->
            </xsl:call-template>
            <em>
              <xsl:value-of select="$current"/>
            </em>
            <xsl:call-template name="highlight">
              <xsl:with-param name="label"  select="substring-after($label, $current)"/>
              <xsl:with-param name="text" select="$text"/> <!-- change this -->
            </xsl:call-template>
          </xsl:when>

i.e. don't move on to the next token once a match is found, but rather continue with that same token until it's not found. The rest of the template is the same.
