Ah, but there's the rub: is $sortField a document node (/) with child a
SortFields element, in which case $sortField/SortField[1] will select
nothing, or is it a SortFields element in which case
$sortField/SortField[1] will select something.

sure you have, remove the xsl:sort so the error goes away, then add
[<xsl:value-of select="$sortField"/>]
 or select="instance of $sortField element()" or anything else that may
be informative to the body of your loop.
