I didn't really understand your problem description, but this generates the required output:

['aaa'],['bbb', 'ccc', 'dddd', 'eeee', 'gggg'],['fffff']

<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">


 <xsl:template match="test">
  <xsl:for-each-group   select="a/b[c]" group-by="@name">
   <xsl:if test="position()>1">,</xsl:if>
   <xsl:text>['</xsl:text>
   <xsl:value-of select="current-group()/c" separator="', '"/>
   <xsl:text>']</xsl:text>
  </xsl:for-each-group>
 </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Note

<xsl:text disable-output-escaping="no">

you never need to use d-o-e ="no" as that is the default 9and you hardly ever need d-o-e at all)

//c[1][ancestor::b/@name=$node]"

That generates every c in the document that is the first child of any element that has an ancestor b with the required name. did you intend to select the first c in the document that is a descendant of such a b? that would be (//b[@name=$node]//c)[1] but note (unless your xslt processor is being kind and rewriting it for you) // can be very expensive and you are better to use a key or for-each-group.

<xsl:value-of select="./text()"/>

you never need to start a path with ./ this is teh same as text() but using text() makes the code fragile in the face of coments or other markup in the source, better just to use

<xsl:value-of select="."/>
