I'm not sure, but one possibility: node() matches not only elements but
any node: attributes, text, comments... so your template would have
ended up trying to call local-name() on nodes that don't have a local
name. That would explain why changing it to match only elements with *
cleared up the problem.
Since this isn't a Cocoon-specific issue, an XSLT mailing list or forum
may be a better bet for getting the answer. Or perhaps one specific to
the XSLT processor you're using (Xalan?), since it's likely different
processors handle these edge cases differently.
What I was trying to do is copy one element
into another element and remove unnecessary namespace declarations (as
this is meant to be published XML) whilst retaining a specific namespace
(the supplier namespace).
There is a page on the Cocoon wiki about stripping extra namespace
declarations, as it is a common problem:
http://wiki.apache.org/cocoon/RemoveNamespaces
<files>
<supplier ...>
...
</supplier>
<customRows>
...
</customRows>
</files>
becomes:
<sup:supplier sup:xmlns="..." xmlns="..." ...>
...
<sup:supplementary>
<sup:customRows>
...
</sup:customRows>
</sup:supplementary>
</sup:supplier>
Here is an unadulterated version of the XSLT
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
xmlns:sup="http://www.calypso.net.au/apps/supub/SupplierV1.0";
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";

<xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/>
<supplementary>
<xsl:apply-templates select="../customRows"/>
</supplementary>
</supplier>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="node()>
<xsl:element name="{local-name()}">
<xsl:apply-templates select="@*"/>
<xsl:if test="count(*) = 0">
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
