normalize-space does not properly handle text data

           Summary: normalize-space does not properly handle text data
           Product: XalanJ2
           Version: 2.2.x
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows NT/2K
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: Other
         Component: org.apache.xpath
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Using the sql extension and 2.2.D11:

<xsl:variable name="original-data" select="col[@column-label='original_data']"/>
<corrected-data>
   <xsl:value-of select="normalize-space($original-data)"/>
</corrected-data>

The output is:

<corrected-data>#element</corrected-data>


If I wrap a dummy-node around the data in my variable it works, ie.

<xsl:variable name="original-data">
  <this-is-crap>
    <xsl:value-of select="col[@column-label='original_data']"/>
  </this-is-crap>
</xsl:variable>
