Thanks andrew and florent this helped a lot. What i used was:

document('source2.xml')/entry[@id=current()/@id and
@type=current()/@type and (@n=current()/@n or @n[matches(.,'-') and
number(substring-before(.,'-')) <= current()/@n and
number(substring-after(.,'-')) >= cunrrent()/@n])]

Was obfuscation part of the requirements? :-)

Seriously, you could do with a few variables in there...

<xsl:variable name="min" select="number(substring-before(.,'-'))" />
<xsl:variable name="max" select="number(substring-after(.,'-'))" />
<xsl:variable name="id" select="current()/@id" />
document('source2.xml')/entry[
       (@id=current()/@id)
and (@type=current()/@type)
and ((@n=current()/@n)
    or @n[matches(.,'-')
               and ($min &lt;= current()/@n)
               and ($max &gt;= current()/@n)]
  )
