When you use <esql:get-columns> and one of your column has a NULL value,
you find yourself with a disgracefull NullPointerException. Here is a patch
for Cocoon2 to have an empty tag instead :

Index: esql.xsl

   </xsl:choose>
 </xsl:template>

This solution is inspired from the patch posted by Matthew Cordes on
2001-02-22 about the same problem but applying to Cocoon1.

Comments are very welcome.
