No, it's not possible. We had it already yesterday. '|' means UNION on
nodesets, 'or' means OR. But @type='101' is no nodeset.

<my:valuelist xmlns:my="http://somenamespace.com">
  <v>101</v>
  <v>103</v>
  <v>107</v>
  <v>201</v>
  <v>xxx</v>
  <v>whee!</v>
  <v>too many values</v>
  <v>to list in an 'or' sequence</v>
</my:valuelist>

<xsl:variable name="values" select="document('')/*/my:valuelist/v"/>
<!-- bothering with the variable is syntax sugar
     unless you use it more than once -->

Cheers,
