You should do what I meant here, not what I wrote, unfortunately there
is not much correlation between the two, so I'll rephrase.
If you are doing it in one pass, then you want
<xsl:sort
select="string-join(for $i in $ORDER_BY_TOKEN return *[local-name()=$i],',')"/>
If you are generating a stylesheet you want
<xsl:element name="xsl:sort"
select="concat('string-join((', $ORDER_BY, ')'','')')"/>
