The number() function fails

Sorry, you were right, my example didn't show the error.  But I'm sure this one 
shows the error:

Input file (named a.xml):

<?xml version='1.0'?>
<a>          </a>

Stylesheet (named a.xsl):

<?xml version='1.0'?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
                version='1.0'>

<xsl:template match="/*">
  <xsl:copy>
     <xsl:if test="number(.) &gt; 0">
                Greater
         </xsl:if>
  </xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Output from the following command line:
java -jar xalan.jar -in a.xml -xsl a.xsl

.xml.transform.TransformerException): String index out of range: 10

Please test yourself.
