GeoTools 2 is capable of turning GML 2 into SVG by combining the GML with 
an OGC Styled Layer Description document (or hand coded styling if 
preferred).  However this is done using a Java class library and not using 
XSLT so it may not be suitable for your needs.

If you are happy with using a Java toolkit in your pipleline let me know 
and I'll do what I can to help.

All the best
