If the DevHelp uses XML based configuration files, you should
definitively use <xsl:output method="xml"/>. With this setting XSLT
processor will escape sensitive characters automatically for you. 

In HTML Help I can't use HTML output method, because HTML Help Compiler
doesn't accept "well-formed" HTML. Sigh! That's the reason why HTML Help
stylesheet looks so ugly and uses text output method instead.

It is fixed in CVS. You can grab latest version of htmlhelp-common.xsl
and enjoy it :-)
