Re: [xsl] position and grouping?

I need to send this again, as I am no closer to understanding why this
is not working.  Name order is correct, until I have more than one
mods:mods element with the same mods:name content.  Example output is
now like:

Transition, In A. Amin Ed., Post-Fordism: A Reader (Oxford:Blackwell
Publishers)   pp. 2345.

But I don't see why the test I have correctly handles the first
mods:name in a mods:mods element, except if the same names are repeated
in another mods:mods element.

In other words, I want the when test to be satisfied for all
first-authors.  So what am I doing wrong?

<xsl:template match="mods:name" mode="full">
    ...
    <xsl:when test="$sort-order='first-author' and position() = 1 and
not(parent::mods:relatedItem)">
      <xsl:apply-templates select="mods:namePart[@type='family'] |
mods:namePart[not(@type)]"/>
      <xsl:text>, </xsl:text>
      <xsl:apply-templates select="mods:namePart[@type='given']"/>
    </xsl:when>
    ...
</xsl:template>

The (abbreviated) source looks like:

<mods>
  <name type="personal">
    <namePart type="given">Jane</namePart>
    <namePart type="family">Doe</namePart>
  </name>
  <name type="personal">
    <namePart type="given">Steve</namePart>
    <namePart type="family">Smith</namePart>
  </name>
<mods>
