No.
The spec states that "it is an error for output escaping to be disabled for
a text node that is used for something else than a text node in the result
tree. Thus, it is an error to disable output escaping for an xsl:value-of
or xsl:text element that is used to generate the string-value of a comment,
processing instruction or an attribute node; [...] an XSLT processor may
signal the error; if it does not signal the error, it must recover by
ignoring the disable-output-escaping attribute."

The bug is somewhere else:

It should be "b&amp;b" or "b&#38;b" if the input is "b&amp;b" or "b&#38;b"
(the actual value is "b&b", that must be escaped)
