I don't think this will work in Saxon. You are using the Xalan way of
calling Java extension functions, and this will only work in Xalan. I
suspect you are using Xalan and not Saxon. Check the value of
system-property('xsl:vendor').

Saxon's binding of Java extension functions does not allow you to call a
Java method without explicitly naming the class that it belongs to as part
of the URI used in the function name.
