RE: create xml from incoming xml and load it into a v

Unfortunately the output of xsl:message is implementation-defined. Your XSLT
processor appears to be flattening it to a string, which I don't think is a
particularly good idea, but it's allowed by the spec. (Some processors
discard xsl:message output completely, which is also permitted.)

You can also view the variable by copying it temporarily to the result tree:

<debug variable="var">
  <xsl:copy-of select="$var"/>
</debug>
