Нашел такой пример в XML документации от MS


…For example, the following generates the single character "<".

<xsl:value-of disable-output-escaping="yes" select="string('&lt;')"/> 

Note
Because disable-output-escaping="yes" can be used to generate non-well-formed documents, it should be used with caution. Output that is not well-formed can generate errors in certain circumstances. For example, transformNodeToObject to an XML document requires that the result be well-formed, and thus might not complete if disable-output-escaping has affected the well-formedness of the document. Consider disable-output-escaping="yes" an advanced feature, to be used only when the potential dangers are understood.
