What about this compromise?
<xsl:template match="D" mode="foo">
<xsl:call-template name="foobarwow" >
<xsl:with-param.../> <!-- if necessary -->
<xsl:call-template>
</xsl:template>
and the same for bar and wow. Then:
<xsl:template name="foobarwow" >
<xsl:param... /> <!-- like whatever was necessary above -->
<!-- Then do all the common work once here -->
</xsl:template>
