It might have been my fault for forgetting to point out that you'd
need to escape the ampersands when you used the call in an XSLT
stylesheet (the error would be very low-level if you didn't do that).
In the stylesheet, it should look like:

<xsl:variable name="workbooks"
  select="document('http://hbcora59/psr/Viewer?_but=Connect&amp;db=dwbspt11&amp;nlsl=en-us&amp;in=dwb&amp;_in=dwb&amp;lc=false&amp;us=rpekarek&amp;fm=xml&amp;ac=rpekarek')" />

Cheers,

Jeni
