I don't know of an official list. The problem is that its difficult to determine without a browser test. Mozilla can be compiled with or without XSLT support, and I have never tested Netscape to know if it actually has XSLT compiled in or not, or in which versions and subversions of the two browsers it is actually enabled.
As for MSIE it is a seperate ActiveX component, the MSXML component. Basically any modern version of IE MIGHT be able to do XSLT, if the right components are installed. To make it more fun MS has released numerous versions of MSXML with giant variations on XSLT support. The earliest ones are completely broken and won't work with any realistic stylesheet. The later ones are quite good. AFAIK no other browsers have meaningful XSLT support. And of course in general the quality of the XSLT engine and its quirks very greatly. After having built several test pages and hammered on Mozilla and IE XSLT I would rate it as being at a level similar to what JavaScript support was at 5 years ago. You can do a few nice things fairly reliably with it on the right platforms, but deploying it as a core part of a site wouldn't work.
