There's a typo...

<xsl:template match="foo">
 <xsl:copy-of select="."/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="foo[not(text())]">
 <foo>hello mum</foo>
</xsl:template>

Cheers,
<prs/>

<xsl:template match="foo">
 <xsl:copy-of select="."/>
</xsl:template>
 
<xsl:template match="foo[not(text()]">
 <foo>hello mum</foo>
</xsl:template>
 
will convert

<foo>zzz</foo> to <foo>zzz</foo>
and
<foo/>         to <foo>hello mum</foo>
