Yes, the multicolumn index works fine for a
book. I understand the article problem and can live with
it.
Your XEP output I can't reproduce, I never
get index page ranges collapsed, with book or article. See
results below. I have up-graded to XEP 4.10, the latest free
personal edition, and get the same result. I can't see how it
could make any difference, but I'm using MacOS 10.3.9, Oxygen 8.2,
Saxon 6.5.5,
docbook/5.0/docbook-xsl-ns-1.73.2/fo/docbook.xsl and

Actually, the statement should be that the column.count.index parameter does not seem to work when an index appears inside an article. It works when an index appears inside a book. That's because an article is a single page-sequence, using the body page-master. There is no way for it to switch to a new page master with two columns within a single page master. I'll add that to the next edition, and to the parameter doc.
Regarding the XEP index features, I find in XEP versions 1.45 and 1.49 that the page sequences are collapsed. Here are some examples from your (extended) document:
N
nine, 1-3
nineteen, 1-2, 4
ntwo, 1, 3-4
What results are you getting?
