Subject: Character references and the dreaded d-o-e

I have what I think is a very simple XSLT 1 question, but I can't recall the
best way to solve it.
We have the following value in the database: AT&T
Which gets serialized as
<result_set>
<vendor_name>AT&T</vendor_name>
</result_set>
My stylesheet is set to output text, and doing
<xsl:value-of select="/result_set/vendor_name"/>
Returns AT&T
Even though I'm producing plain text, the only workaround I'm aware of is to
change the output to XML and use d-o-e on the value-of element to get the
desired result (AT&T). But I can't help but think there are unwanted side
effects to this, and that there might be a better way (perhaps using string
replacement?). Any other suggestions?
Thanks,
b.
