RE: [xsl] Saxon processing problem...

["Michael Kay" <mike@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The StackOverflow looks like a (previously unreported) Saxon bug. I'll look
into it. 

Note that product-specific problems should generally be reported on the
appropriate list/forum for that product; in the case of Saxon this is the
saxon-help list or forum which you can find via the saxon project on
sourceforge.
