I'm afraid it's bit of a challenge with xslt 1.0:

<xsl:template match="node()">
  <xsl:copy>
    <xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()[1]"/>
  </xsl:copy>
  <xsl:apply-templates select="following-sibling::node()[1]"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="@*">
  <xsl:copy/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="aaa[@stylename = 'start']">
  <xsl:copy>
    <xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
      <xsl:copy-of select="following-sibling::aaa[@stylename =
'finish'][1]/preceding-sibling::node()
      	[generate-id(preceding-sibling::aaa[@stylename = 'start'][1]) =
generate-id(current())]"/>
    </xsl:copy>
  <xsl:apply-templates select="following-sibling::aaa[@stylename =
'finish'][1]"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="aaa[@stylename = 'finish']">
  <xsl:apply-templates select="following-sibling::node()[1]"/>		
</xsl:template>
