Well, what I would do in this situation, make it PHP and use mod_rewrite 
to forward "slackbuild-search.xml" to "slackbuild-search.php" and 
"slackbuild-search-([0-9\.]+).xml" to 
"slackbuild-search.php?version=$1", then when it comes to it do:

<?php
   $versions = array('12.1','12.0','11.0');
   $version = '';
   if(in_array($_GET['version'],$versions))
      $version = $_GET['version'];
   echo '<Url type="text/html" method="GET" 
template="http://slackbuilds.org/result/?search={searchTerms}&sv=',$version,'" 
/>';
?>

Or similar, I just like the fact that it's quite compact, and altering 
the list of versions is quite easy.
