probably $lines[last()]/preceding-sibling::node()/@length could be 
simplified to $lines[position() < last()]/@length but I doubt that 
makes any difference as there is a suspision that the error message is 
generated in part of the code not shown. The list guidelines suggest 
that you make a complete small test case with input and expected output.
