Did you specify --enable-exslt to the configure script? It should be
supported. If it doesn't work, it probably is a bug, either in libexslt
or mod-xslt. Please let me know :)

mod-xslt2 uses libxslt, libexslt and libxml2, available at http://www.xmlsoft.org/. Take a look there, the documentation is
quite complete. Almost everything supported by those libraries is
supported by mod-xslt :)
