Creating an explicit hierarchy from a flat structure is one of the harder
jobs to do in XSLT - it's essentially a parsing problem. It can be done, but
it's not easy.

My instinct, especially if you're new to XSLT, would be to tackle this one
as a SAX filter written in Java. You can either use this for a one-off
transformation, or you can use this as an input filter in front of your XSLT
Stylesheet.
