hmm, I get

2007,0017016990001001703914F537,,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0

which is different by a landslide, I think.

Can you take our request for "smallest possible example, but large 
enough to illustrate your problem" more literal please?

A few remarks on your code:
- you use 'xsl:apply-imports', but you do not have any imports. Also, 
consider using 'xsl:next-match' instead, which gives you more flexibility
- you have a parent in most match expressions in your templates, this 
is not needed, costs an extra parent-lookup by the processor and makes 
your code less readable.
- you do not have an entry point for your input (only apply-imports 
there, but no imports). I assumed xsl:apply-templates on the same spot.
- your 'current-group' is out of scope in a named template, selecting 
the empty sequence always.
- I believe your code can be down to 90% of its size by removing the 
named template 'monthly' and removing the 12 call-templates. Instead, 
use a simple xsl:function and/or a tiny for-in-return. This will also 
aid in readability.
- there's a throw-away template that creates an empty text node. This 
can be rewritten as an empty <xsl:template match="..." />

Not sure this will get you any further, but the results of your code are 
not an error of the processor at least.
