Thanks Jean!
Actually, our Sr. Project Manager/über-developer was able to get it to work.
Relevant XSLT tagging:
<xsl:stylesheet
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:lxslt="http://xml.apache.org/xslt"
xmlns:testIndent="testExtensions"
extension-element-prefixes="testIndent"
version="1.0">
<lxslt:component prefix="testIndent" elements="init" functions="setIndent">
<lxslt:script lang="javaclass" src="testExtensions"/>
</lxslt:component>
<xsl:template match="myTag">
<xsl:value-of disable-output-escaping="yes"
select="testIndent:setIndent(string(@indent))" />
</xsl:template>
There was also a necessary change to either the .java file or the location
of the .java file that she mentioned, but I can't remember those details off
the top of my head...
