fwiw, on our 'stax caveats' wiki we have the following entry:
Can't iterate empty list

I forget the exact error, something like StaxIterateEmptyList, but if you try 
to be clever and create a loop which might not ever iterate, i.e. <loop 
var='foo' in='range(1,i)'> where i may be 1 or less, this will blow up for i < 
2, as range() will generate a list [], and STAX will throw an error instead of 
treating it as a noop.
