I think what's going on is that you're expecting to "see" the result of
putting a space or sequence of spaces into the xml file when you view
the xml file in IE(or is it that you want the whitespace to be
maintained on output itself?). That won't happen since xml files are
supposed to ignore whitespace, now if you put xml:space="preserve" as an
attribute on the element you want the whitespace to be significant in my
understanding is that it should be displayed. 
However my experience with IE is that it does not display it, perhaps
this is a bug in the Defaultss.xsl.
