So you're always trying to compare the xrefLabel value and the href
attribute value on the same element?

Supposing you've got XSLT 2.0 -- 

<xsl:template match="CrossReference[replace(@xrefLabel,'[\p{P}\p{Zs}]*','') eq replace(@href,'^#','')]">
.... call a function to report?
</xsl:template>

That's taking the @xrefLabel value and removing all punctuation and
spaces and comparing it to the @href value with any leading # removed.
