Yes, this is expected. With xml:space="preserve", whitespace

Yes, but there is whitespace between the start tag <script> and the
start tag <xsl:variable>. I'm not certain, but I suspect that's
your problem.

OK. I see what you are getting at, but it seems like a bug.

Why would whitespace affect something that has no whitespace around
it? (especially when specifying separator="" ?) I am guessing, but it
seems like some ContentHandler type-thing is automatically inserting
the first set of whitespace for ever XSL element ??

Try generating the preserve-space with an attribute instruction:

<xsl:attribute name="xml:preserve-space" select="'preserve'"/>
