Hello Tom,
Here is another example that causes a crash, probably for the same reason but
better be safe than sorry:
select xslt_process('<root xml_tb_version="2.0" type="struct" >
<ttm type="int32" >60</ttm>
<delta type="double" >0.75</delta>
<ttm2 type="int32" >30</ttm2>
<delta2 type="double" >0.75</delta2>
<expMonthNum type="int32" >1</expMonthNum>
<assetComb type="cell" >
<item type="char" >calendar spread</item>
</assetComb>
</root>',
'<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="root">
<xsl:for-each select="*">
<xsl:if test="item">
<elem type="{@type}" name="{global-name()}">
<xsl:value-of select="./item"/>
</elem>
<xsl:text> </xsl:text>
</xsl:if>
<xsl:if test="not(item)">
<elem type="{@type}" name="{name()}">
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</elem>
<xsl:text> </xsl:text>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>','')
A correct error report for this case would be something like "function
global-name is unknown" (I've just replaced a correct "name" function with
"global-name") but of course "failed to apply stylesheet" is still better than
a crash :)
Thanks,
Peter

Apparently not -- or at least, if libxslt provides any easy way to extract
error reports, it's not evident from the pretty-awful documentation. I've
committed a fix that just reports "failed to apply stylesheet".
