Vote for this issue, hopefully they'll fix it for SP1:

It is rather odd it seems, if you use version="1.1" then your xsl:bar element is ignored by XslCompiledTransform with both .NET 3.5 SP 1 and .NET 4.0. If you use version="2.0" and then try to use a new top level element introduced in XSLT 2.0, like xsl:function, then .NET 4.0 tells you


"Unhandled Exception: System.Xml.Xsl.XslLoadException: 'xsl:function' is not yet
implemented."


That looks as if the implementation of XslCompiledTransform at some point was changed to prepare support (of parts) of XSLT 2.0 but then they forgot to remove those changes when deciding to release .NET 4.0 without any XSLT 2.0 support.
