RE: Checking node position

["Pawson, David" <DPawson@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Gary, Saxon 5.4.1 complains

<xsl:variable name="head-types"
select="document('')//x:keynode/text()"/>

<xsl:template match="p[. = $head-types]">
  <xsl:element name="{.}">
    <xsl:apply-templates select="key('parent', generate-id())[not(. =
$head-types)]"
      mode="inner"/>
  </xsl:element>
</xsl:template>

Failed to compile style sheet
At xsl:template on line 18 of trash.xsl: The match pattern in
xsl:template may not contain references to variables

18 is the template match above.
It looks OK to me, am I missing something?
 The variable within the predicate I thought was OK?
