well they are, but when removing duplicates I only kept the _last_:

<xsl:copy-of select="saxon:node-set($x)/p[not(.=following-sibling::p)]"/>

sounds like you want to keep the first:

<xsl:copy-of
select="saxon:node-set($x)/p[not(.=preceding--sibling::p)]"/>

p was a random letter I happened to hit on a keyboard, you should be
able to have any element/attribute combination you want there (so long
as you test for that element rather than p in the second pass that
removes duplicates. ie the two p's in the line quoted above.
