Or, when case1 and case2 are known to be mutually exclusive
   (that is,
          not(case1 and case2)  = true()
   )

we can simply write:

<xsl:variable name="mynodeset"   select=
  "(path1)[case1]
 |
   (path2)[case2]
  "/>



This can naturally be generalised for N mutually exclusive cases by
simply adding a new row for every additional case in the expression
above:

   (path1)[case1]
 |
   (path2)[case2]

  .  .  .  .  .  .  .  .  .  .

|
   (pathN)[caseN]
