Resolved.

I had 

         <xsl:analyze-string  flags="ix"
         regex="([0-9]{{6}})
         (,,)|(,([0-9]{{6}})\p{{Zs}}+,(.*))$" 
          select=".">

I should have used

    <xsl:analyze-string  flags="ix"
         regex="([0-9]{{6}})
         (,,|,([0-9]{{6}})\p{{Zs}}+,(.*))$" 
          select=".">

The grouping parens (alternates) are required round
the pair of alternates, not the actual alternates.

Sorry to waste bandwidth.

Regards DaveP.
