I tried installing saxon-he and ran into dependency problems. (See this problem ticket: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1524251#p1524251)
The bottom line is that I have jre8-openjdk-headless installed, but this doesn't satisfy the dependency. Surely Saxon has no need of graphics libraries? The full jre8-openjdk depends on a lot of other cruft, including some X libraries. I'm running this on a server and have no intention of installing anything X-windows related.
Would it be possible to modify the dependency to be satisfied by jre7/8-openjdk-headless? Anyone how has the full jre installed will automatically have the headless package installed as a dependency, so this won't affect any current users.

install: cannot stat ‘../saxon-xslt.sh’: No such file or directory
Should the '..' prefix just be a single dot since we are in the src directory already?
I edited the PGKBUILD package() function accordingly and it worked.

Updated to the new 9.6 release. Also included the two command-line wrappers for both XSLT and XQuery. Thanks!

FYI, there's actually two main methods in this; in my saxon-b package you get a saxon-xslt and a saxon-xquery command. The one currently exposed in this package is saxon-xslt. The commands, respectively, are:
java -classpath /usr/share/java/saxon/saxon9he.jar net.sf.saxon.Transform
and
java -classpath /usr/share/java/saxon/saxon9he.jar net.sf.saxon.Query
