How do you use Exslt.dyn (especially the 'evaluate' method) in Umbraco?

I am trying to execute the string contained in an XSL variable.

Umbraco has hooks for several Exslt pieces, but it seems the Exslt.dyn (Exslt.dynamic) is not one of them.

How do you add it in? Acceptable methods (in order of preference:

  1. Writing your own XSLT extension (possibly using existing Umbraco code for Exslt Dynamic).
  2. Uploading the XSL from http://www.exslt.org/dyn/functions/evaluate/index.html into Umbraco.
  3. Modifying the Umbraco source to add it (possibly using existing Umbraco code for Exslt Dynamic).

The reason I mention Exslt Dyanmic is because some Umbraco XSLT sources show a reference that I am assuming existing in some versions of Umbraco. I cannot find it in the source code, however. (Example: the XSL sources pasted in here: http://our.umbraco.org/projects/starter-kits/business-website-starter-pack/general-%28bugs,-feedback,-feature-requests%29/8085-Changing-the-first-day-to-fx-monday)
