How on earth are we to guess?

It presumably doesn't generate an error as it looks syntactically OK, so
by "doesn't work" I assume you mean it tests as false when you expected
it to be true, or as true when you expected it to be false, but since we
don't know the values of @objname or $doc_scope what can we say?

I will hazard a guess that if $doc_scope is a node set you probably
don't want to use != with it, != is almost never useful on non trivial
node sets as it it will evaluate to true (whatever you are comparing
against) if there are two nodes in the set with different values.
