The question seems to be whether <xsl:strip-space elements="*"/> applies
to data fetched with document() as well as to the input document.
The definition of xsl:strip-space says "For source documents, [...]".
And document()'s definition is in section 12.1,
https://www.w3.org/TR/xslt-10/#document, explicitly labelled "Multiple
Source Documents."
As I read it, that does seem to mean strip-space is intended to apply to
input from document().
And if non-compiled Xalan implements it that way, I'd bet it's correct,
since our lead (Scott Boag) was on the XSLT Working Group and had an
opportunity to check this.
I can try to contact Scott and check that. But my reading right now is
that this has to be considered a Known Bug in compiled stylesheet
processing.

At first look, I think the whitespace35 test is simply wrong. The spec
isn't a "little vague" about whitespace stripping here. It doesn't say
anything about it, which means whitespace nodes should not be
stripped. If I'm missing something in the XSLT 1.0 spec that indicates
whitespace nodes should be stripped here, please point it out.
