No, but why are you useing xx:node-set at all with xslt2? You don't need
to use an extension function to process variables in xslt2 (and there is
no node set type at all in xpath2).

Your original version is an infinite loop so ought produce an error in
any processor

        <xsl:template match="/">
                <xsl:apply-templates select="exsl-common:node-set($rtf)" />
        </xsl:template>


xx:node-set always returns a node set containing a single / node.
so the template that matches is / which just applies templates back to
the same nod ad infinitum. you pretty much always want to do
 xx:node-set(..)/* so as to apply templates to the top level element
rather than the / node.
