I have decided to try a character map. When I used the sheet below, however, it converts <br /> to <br>:

?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="2.0">


<xsl:output use-character-maps="cm1"/>

<xsl:character-map name="cm1">
<xsl:output-character character="&#728;" string="&amp;#774;"/><!--breve-->
<xsl:output-character character="&#175;" string="&amp;#772;"/> <!-- macron -->
</xsl:character-map>

<xsl:template match="br"/>

        <xsl:template match="@*|node()">
            <xsl:copy>
                <xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/>
            </xsl:copy>
        </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

I really don't need the <br /> elements. That is the reason for the template rule removing them. But is the switch from <br/> to <br> caused by the output line?

The function fn:normalize-unicode() will do what you want,
with a second argument of "NFC".

I'm not sure it will, because the input is using non-combining diacritical
marks. I think the answer is translate():

translate($in, '&#728;...', '&#774;...'
