I don't know of any way of doing it. Certainly there's nothing in Saxon to
enable it. The Java documentation is remarkably vague about the syntax of
the command line, and I don't know whether it depends on which shell you're
using. When will the industry come up with a decent job control language?

If no-one comes up with anything, you'll have to pass the thing in with an
underscore or such like, and use translate() within the stylesheet to change
it.
