it means that you can access the value of the cookie named foo by
declaring:

<xsl:param name="C_foo"/>

under the root element of your stylesheets. personally, i don't like this
method of accessing that data - it looks ugly and there's the possibility
of name collisions. however, i doubt we'll think of anything more elegant
until xslt-1.1 rolls around.
