With an extension function such as
<http://exslt.org/dyn/functions/evaluate/index.html>. Thought it's stated
that no prosessor yet supports dyn:evaluate(), e.g. Saxon
<http://saxon.sourceforge.net/saxon6.5/extensions.html#evaluate> and Xalan-J
<http://xml.apache.org/xalan-j/extensionslib.html#evaluate> have an
extension like/similar to it.
