ouch - that'd be a bug then.
There's a release coming very soon, I'll include a fix. Sorry for the 
inconvenience...
If you want to build from CVS, look in the file src/lang/Program.oml 
and move the line with 'program.compile()' to the constructor.

If you're setting more than one parameter you'll have to iterate over 
the config param's.
Otherwise looks just fine, it's my code that's faulty.

For sure - catch the output in a variable, then use that as input to an 
XSL transformation -
<o:import href="lib/xslt.oml"/>
<o:variable name="result">
  .. eval program ..
</o:variable>
<o:set source="xslt:Source($result)"/>
<o:set xslt="xslt:Transformer($xsltfile)"/>
<o:eval select="$xslt.transform($source)"/>

hth,
