It depends of course on what XML parser you are using with XT or Saxon, not
on the XSLT processor itself.

I suspect an XML parser should report this as an error. The XML version of
the XML specification itself, however, contains the line 

<!ENTITY lt     "<">

and most parsers accept it: but IE5 doesn't. For once I think MS are in the
right.
