This is interesting.

I tried this in a couple XQuery parsers and they all report an error

   1 treat as xs: untypedAtomic


So if xs:untypedAtomic is not the base type of anything then it makes sense that treat as will fail


Thanks Michael, and David - yes I came to the same conclusion. It's not worth chasing down whether there's a bug in some outdated version of Saxon, I guess. This diagram shows the type hierarchy: http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath-functions/#datatypes.
