True, generating something that is not even valid HTML is impossible
without resorting to text mode or disable-output-escaping hacks. I
would question the need to generate such code, though.

You could easily generate this:

<?php if ($value == 'yes') { ?>
  <input type="checkbox" name="{@id}" value="yes" checked="checked"/>
<?php } else { ?>
  <input type="checkbox" name="{@id}" value="yes"/>
<?php } ?>

with this:

<xsl:processing-instruction name="php">
  <xsl:text>if ($value == 'yes') { </xsl:text>
</xsl:processing-instruction>
<input type="checkbox" name="{@id}" value="yes" checked="checked"/>
<xsl:processing-instruction name="php">
  <xsl:text>} else { </xsl:text>
</xsl:processing-instruction>
<input type="checkbox" name="{@id}" value="yes"/>
<xsl:processing-instruction name="php">
  <xsl:text>} </xsl:text>
</xsl:processing-instruction>

Just an idea...
