Fortunately, there are two projects that are working on providing
bridges between the C++ versions of Xalan and Xerces and Python:

Pyana is focused on providing Xalan's transformation capabilities to
Python scripts:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/pyana
http://pyana.sourceforge.net/docs/

Pirxx is focused on providing an interface to Xerces, right now it
only provides SAX2 drivers but work is on-going:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/pirxx
(don't know where the docs are)

Cheers,
Brian
