In XSLT 1.0 you can put the code in a named template, which you can call
using xsl:call-template.

In XSLT 2.0 you can put it in a function, which you can call from within an
XPath expression.

In both cases, however, the xsl:decimal-format declaration has to stay
outside the function: it must be global to the stylesheet.
