You could use a few different approaches:

 <xsl:apply-templates select="task[message/@priority != 'debug']"/>
to apply templates only to those tasks with the right priority,
if <message> is the only possible child element of <task>, or

or

<xsl:template match="task">
  <xsl:if test="message/@priority != 'debug'">
    <xsl:value-of select="message"/>
  </xsl:if>
  <!-- ... other processing for contents of task ... -->
</xsl:template>

or even

<xsl:template match="message">
  <xsl:if test="@priority != 'debug'><xsl:value-of select="."/></xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
