The ancestor-or-self:: axis pretty much gives you that information.
Assuming your node is an element named "findme", you can do something like this:
<xsl:template match="findme">
<xsl:text>/</xsl:text>
<xsl:for-each select="ancestor-or-self::*">
<xsl:value-of select="name()"/><xsl:text>/</xsl:text>
</xsl:for-each>
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
</xsl:template>
An xsl:choose can help you figure out which nodes are elements versus text or attributes, in which case you can deal with the last path segment separately by using the "ancestor::" axis instead of "ancestor-or-self::".
