Harry:
Ok, that isn't going to work.
I expanded your test harness to the one attached.
I just changed this result matrix:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
pass: 2004-02-26 + P2D = 2004-02-28 [2004-02-28]
fail: 2004-02-28 + P1D = 2004-02-29 [2004-03-01]
pass: 2003-02-26 + P2D = 2003-02-28 [2003-02-28]
pass: 2003-02-28 + P1D = 2003-03-01 [2003-03-01]
pass: 2002-12-30 + P2D = 2003-01-01 [2003-01-01]
pass: 2002-12-30 + P61D = 2003-03-01 [2003-03-01]
pass: 2000-12-30 + P2D = 2001-01-01 [2001-01-01]
fail: 2000-02-28 + P307D = 2000-12-31 [2001-01-01]
fail: 2003-12-30 + P3D = 2004-01-02 [2004-01-01]
pass: 2003-12-30 + P62D = 2004-03-01 [2004-03-01]
fail: 2000-12-30 + P1098D = 2004-01-02 [2004-01-01]
pass: 2000-12-30 + P1157D = 2004-03-01 [2004-03-01]
fail: 2000-02-28 + P1462D = 2004-02-29 [2004-03-01]
for this one:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
fail: 2004-02-26 + P3D = 2004-02-29 [2004-02-28]
pass: 2004-02-28 + P2D = 2004-03-01 [2004-03-01]
pass: 2003-02-26 + P2D = 2003-02-28 [2003-02-28]
pass: 2003-02-28 + P1D = 2003-03-01 [2003-03-01]
pass: 2002-12-30 + P2D = 2003-01-01 [2003-01-01]
pass: 2002-12-30 + P61D = 2003-03-01 [2003-03-01]
pass: 2000-12-30 + P2D = 2001-01-01 [2001-01-01]
fail: 2000-02-28 + P307D = 2000-12-31 [2001-01-01]
fail: 2003-12-30 + P3D = 2004-01-02 [2004-01-01]
pass: 2003-12-30 + P62D = 2004-03-01 [2004-03-01]
fail: 2000-12-30 + P1098D = 2004-01-02 [2004-01-01]
pass: 2000-12-30 + P1157D = 2004-03-01 [2004-03-01]
fail: 2000-02-28 + P1462D = 2004-02-29 [2004-03-01]

Try this patch:

< <xsl:variable name="end-y-1"
select="$end-year - 1" />
---
<xsl:variable name="end-y-1">

<xsl:value-of select="$end-year" />

Subject: another error in date:difference template ...
All,
Please be aware of another apparent error in the
date:difference template:
the duration calculated across leap-days is one day short, so:
<xsl:call-template name = "date:difference">
<xsl:with-param name = "start" select =
"'2004-02-28'" />
<xsl:with-param name = "end" select = "'2004-03-10'" />
</xsl:call-template>
yields duration = "P1D" instead of P2D as expected (2004 is a
leap year).
I attach a test harness which can be used to illustrate the
problem. I have
reproduced the behaviour using msxsl and xalantransform.
Does anyone else agree?
