RE: [xsl] Re: Reference to variable cannot be resolved.

But this contradicts the fact that xslt doesn't run sequentially. For
the first variable to be shadowed by the second, the first has to be set
first. Why not the opposite? Why not the second being shadowed by the
first?

2. The first variable is not in scope, because it is shadowed by the
second variable.
