This is correct behaviour. All the stylesheet's whitespace-only text
nodes are stripped, unless they are wrapped in a <xsl:text> element
(roughly speaking; you can also use the xml:space attribute).
So one (perhaps not the most elegant) option would be to write
<TD>
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
<A href="..."></A>
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
</TD>
