NullPointerException

My configuration is xalan j 2.5.1 (with xerces 2.4.0) and j2sdk 1.4.
Using the interpretive transformer
(org.apache.xalan.processor.TransformerFactoryImpl) I can transform the
attached xml and xsl fine.
Using the command line method, I can successfully transform the attached
with the XSLTC transformer.  How do you pass params to the translet on the
command line?
 
However, I cannot transform the attached with an XSLTC transformer when
running "embedded".  I get a NullPointerException.
This seems to be particularly true when I pass a value for the param
"procedureChanged".  I am running several other transforms this way without
problem, so currently I believe it to be a bug with XSLTC, but can't exhibit
the defect from the command line (unless I can figure out how to pass
params???).  The stack trace is below.

Any help is appreciated.
