With much thanks to everyone who offered me help (and with the aid of Mr. Alex Milowski, a god among men), I finally got the answer to my problem. It looks like this:

<xsl:if test="not(entry/title[starts-with(.,'Q')] or entry/episode[starts-with(., 'Q')])"> <xsl:call-template name="insert.text"/> </xsl:if>

I had forgotten that without the predicate filter, the starts-with was returning all the entry/titles and entry/episodes node -concatenated-. I think I shall go and bury my face in shame, now.

Thanks again for all your help, folks!
