Stylus Studio does in fact uses Xerces-C; it pretty closely
tracks the current Apache releases, so if you're on 2007 it
should be 2.7.something or other.

Included with it are XSV and (if you have the Enterprise
release) Saxon, and several Microsoft implementations.  So, if
you get into a corner case where some allow it, some don't, and
the rule has (as Mike Kay stated) some wiggle room, I'd decide
based on this criteria: "Do I care about portability?"
