Aha! Thanks Dave, you must have come across this problem before to think of that solution from the question I posted...?  I would never have thought about using double-escaping, but I guess this is the perfect use for it - I've mapped a few other characters that needed it as well:

<xsl:output-character character="&#183;" string="&amp;#183;"/>

Thanks once again, you've made my day :)
