That's the reason.

You applied the transform to the top level element of the document not
to the document itself. So the first template to be applied would match
/* not /

Not all XSLT engines give an API that allows a transform to start at an
arbitrary node in a document but msxml does (and it's allowed by teh
xslt spec)
