As Wendell said you want the linkend attribute of your $cite-ref element
so
        <xsl:if test="$cite-ref is
key('refs',$cite-ref/@linkend)[1]">FIRST</xsl:if>

That's what I have:

<xsl:message> <xsl:value-of select="$cite-ref/@linkend"/>: <xsl:if test="$cite-ref is key('refs',$cite-ref/@linkend)[1]">FIRST</xsl:if> </xsl:message>

incidentally it looks like that code requres  $cite-ref to be a single
element node, but you have declared it as
<xsl:param name="cite-ref" as="element()*"/>

ie you allow it to be the empty sequence or more than one element.

Yes, I think I had a comment there that indicated I originally defined it as just element(), but in one case (when I was formatting an entire book manuscript), I got an error about an empty sequence. Am not sure how that's possible in this case, but I just added that. I suppose a better hack would be "element()?"?
