I don't see what is the problem...

Even with XSLT 2.0, given this XML document:

<t/>

And this transformation:

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="
http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
 <xsl:output omit-xml-declaration="yes" indent="yes"/>

  <xsl:template match="/*">
    <xsl:message select="."/>
  </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

I get the output of <xsl:message> exactly as wanted:

Saxon 9.1.0.1J from Saxonica
Java version 1.8.0_191
Warning: at xsl:stylesheet on line 1 column 80 of marrowtr.xsl:
