Support for localized orderings and numberings depends very much on which XSLT processor you are using. It would certainly be useful to tell us which processor you are using, and it might be best to ask on a help forum specific to that processor. Note also that the xsl:number instruction recognizes a "lang" attribute, not "xml:lang". Saxon has a fallback numbering scheme which could be producing the effect observed: if the format attribute is a Unicode letter that it doesn't specifically recognize, then it outputs numbers using the sequence of consecutive Unicode letters starting from that point. Which might make no sense at all, but it's a better guess than doing nothing.
