Franz: You can try to debug the stylesheet using xsl:message (same as using println()). The stack trace would be more useful if you name your templates --the names you choose will show up in the trace.
In any case, an NPE in the translet is typically a problem in XSLTC. So, your best course of action is to try to simplify the stylesheet as much as you can and then submit a bug report here: http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/index.html Please attach an XML too.
