XT days-ago extension function

Hi everyone,

I have a question about one of XT's extension functions. I'm trying to use
the utils:days-ago function to create a What's New page. But it's not doing
anything as far as I can see. I would really like to understand what's
wrong! When I test if the function is available, XT doesn't say it's not
available. My xsl just doesn't select any elements... 

Any help would be appreciated!
