I've been using Saxon for a couple of months now without problems. Haven't tried with XSLT2.0 stylesheets though, but no problems with XSLT 1.0 so far. The only "issue" I have encountered so far is that generate-id() in Xalan always generate the same IDs for the same XML-input (but different stylesheets), while Saxon generates different IDs from different stylesheets (which is allowed according to the spec).
