[xsl] position() oddity?

Subject: [xsl] position() oddity?

Given test.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<?cocoon-process type="xslt"?>
<?xml-stylesheet href="test.xsl" type="text/xsl"?>
<headers>
  <title>First</title>
  <title>Second</title>
  <title>Third</title>
  <title>Fourth</title>
  <title>Fifth</title>
</headers>

what would you expect position() in template match "headers/title" to
return? Currently it returns 2 4 6 8 10 using test.xsl (appended) when
run through xt and cocoon. It's not quite what I expected (1 2 3 4 5 :-)
