condition2 is a so-called result tree fragment; the value of the variable is
in effect a node-set containing the root node of a new tree. The
<xsl:attribute> instruction tries to add an attribute node to this tree. But
root nodes don't have attributes, only element nodes can have attributes. So
the <xsl:attribute> should fail saying there is no element node to attach
the attribute to.
