George is right, you'll want to take two passes at those <c> s. After
that, you just need to go with:

       <baz>
         <x att="val" att2="val2"/>
         <y att="val" att2="val2"/>
         <xsl:apply-templates select="subsequence($sortedCs/*, 1, 3)"/>
       </baz>
       <baz>
         <q att="val" att2="val2"/>
         <r att="val" att2="val2"/>
         <xsl:apply-templates select="subsequence($sortedCs/*, 4, 3)"/>
       </baz>
       <baz>
         <g att="val" att2="val2"/>
         <h att="val" att2="val2"/>
         <xsl:apply-templates select="subsequence($sortedCs/*, 7, 3)"/>
       </baz>

But you'll probably want to do something like the above someday soon.
