XT (incorrectly) allows you to have two different variables both called
"c"; Xalan (correctly) disallows it - though this is a very strange way
to report the error.
The code doesn't do what you think it does, even on XT - the person who
wrote it obviously thought they were incrementing the existing variable,
rather than declaring a new variable.

Subject: [xsl] Number error with XALAN
Hi there,
i have following problem
in my XSL there is a section containing the following code, which ran
without producing errors with XT
but produces a "Can not convert #NUMBER to a NodeList!" error
with XALAN.
<xsl:variable name="c" select="1"/>
<xsl:for-each select="meldung....">
<fo:block font-size="10pt">...</fo:block>
<xsl:variable name="c" select="$c+1"/>
</xsl:for-each>
</fo:block>
