Dimitre,

This is now resolved. See https://saxonica.plan.io/issues/2190. 
Basically the steps are:

1. add |package-version=".*"| to any |xsl:use-package| lacking that
   attribute.
2. make the principal stylesheet the *last* in the semicolon-separated
   list of stylesheet/packages, rather than the first as given in
   current documentation. This ensures the principal stylesheet is
   compiled last after all possible packages.

For your example the order of the packages doesn't matter (I've checked 
it running with either order), but in cases where there may be packages 
that are unused, placing the principal stylesheet last will help for the 
moment. Note the next maintenance release will support default package 
version requests, as well as comforming to the package-version syntax of 
the specification, though complex dependency orders may not be supported.

Thanks for raising this, even if it's in the 'experimental wing'

John
