I think you have a few options to do this,

a) Your processor may have some specific support for passing 
in XML as parameters. You will need to read the 
documentation to find out how to do this. The XSLT 1.0 
recommendation does not define how a processor should do 
this.

b) Instead of passing in the XML save it to a file and pass 
the name of the file into the transform so you can use the 
document() function to load the data.

c) Check if your processor has an extention function to 
invoke an XML parser from your XSL. If it does you can pass 
the XML as a string and use that function to get access to 
it.

Hope that helps,
