How can the XPath return 0, if has a context node (.) and has the self
axis in ancestor-or-self? This way it has to return at least 1!

And the question is: Is this XPath expression
count(./ancestor-or-self::menu)+count(./preceding::menu)
equivalent to this XSL expression?
<xsl:variable name="position">
<xsl:number level='any' count="menu"/>
</xsl:variable>
Almost. xsl:number will never return 0, but the XPath expression might. Take
a look at the XSLT 2.0 spec which defines xsl:number in terms of equivalent
XPath expressions.
