ie a nodeset with "jix" and "package" (remember ancestor-or-self is reverse
order). That nodeset is what is passed in to xsl:value-of and the position of
the elements in that nodeset is jix:1 and package:2. Hope this makes sense. I
! won't close this yet until I hear back from you.

! Because it was very illogical to me, I read the spec. I found the following
! paragraph:
!
! 'NOTE: The meaning of a Predicate depends crucially on which axis applies. For
! example, preceding::foo[1] returns the first foo element in reverse document
! order, because the axis that applies to the [1] predicate is the preceding axis;
! by contrast, (preceding::foo)[1] returns the first foo element in document
! order, because the axis that applies to the [1] predicate is the child axis.'
!
! I think you are right, although I didn't understand it correctly. I tested my
! example with the brackets: (ancestor-or-self::*)[position() > 2]. It works. Then
! this was no bug, only a misreading the spec.
!
! Thanks, Joerg
