In the first instance i'd consider seeing ifi could make the
environments closer,  and, if not, consder an external symbolic link.

Other alternatives include
* using a parameter (as Martin suggested) with _href="{ ....}"
* using an environoment variable, also with _href
  xsl:import _href="{ get-environment-
variable('PATHTOBOOTSTRAP')}/2.3.2/layout.xsl" />
or whatever (if you precompile the stylesheet, though, and deploy the
compiled bytecode, this probably won't help)

* using an XML Catalog
* using a wrapper stylesheet that calls fn:transform() on the real one,
after finding it.
