Wyatt,
Try using a computed constructor.
let $message := 'this is a string with a "quote" inside it'
return element exception {
attribute message { $message }
}
=>
<exception message="this is a string with a "quote" inside it"/>

Hi Andrew,
Thanks for the suggestion... I agree that's the issue, but I'm not
quite sure how to work around it. I've tried the following to no avail
- how do I replace the& with&? (unfortunately, I can't change the
value of $ex, this comes from web-service call)...
let $ex as xs:string := '<exception message="One of
''{"http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML":semantics}'' is
expected."/>'
return
xdmp:unquote(
replace($ex, "&","&")
)

Always gives error "SystemID: XDMP-DOCSTARTTAGCHAR: xdmp:unquote("<exception

character "/" in start tag at line 1"
That's because" gets resolved to " when the query is parsed, so
your variable $ex becomes:
<exception message="One of '{"http....
..you can see the double quotes that are causing the exception when
you try and parse that as XML using xdmp:unquote.
One answer is to double escape them:
message="One of ''{&quot;
..then after the query is parsed you are left with """ as expected.
