How does one go about switching XSLT processors? Is there any good resources
that describe the best way to do this?

That's strange. Any variable, regardless of where its value came from,
should be just as accessible via <xsl:value-of select="$contextPath"/> as
via href="{$contextPath}".
Can you show us more of your stylesheet? Presumably you're getting the
context path from the request input module in the sitemap and passing it in
to the stylesheet as a parameter?

You might also try switching XSLT processors (e.g. from Xalan to Saxon) and
see if you get an illuminating error message or if the problem goes away.
