I think it might be as simple as:
/root/node[@attrib='whatever]/childNodeA/..
So, that selects the <node>s with the attribute you want, then select's
their <childNodeA>, and then selects those <childNodeA>'s parents,
resulting in a List of <nodes> that match the attribute predicate and
have a <childNodeA>
Though, the <node> will still have all of its children, include
<childNodeB> and <childNodeC> nodes.
