If I understand right, this, in the context of a function:

of db:footnote.

Is that right?

Not quite. There are two cases:

if $footcite has an ancestor that is a db:footnote, then it counts all
db:footnote elements

.. but not the db:citation descendent?

otherwise, it counds all db:footnote and db:citation elements

$footcite in this context is a function parameter that is defined as
element(), but in practice is either db:footnote or db:citation.  So I
have:

  <xsl:function name="bib:number-footcite" as="xs:string">
    <xsl:param name="footcite" as="element()"/>
    <xsl:choose>
      <xsl:when test="$chapters/db:chapter">
        <xsl:number level="any" select="$footcite"
          count="db:footnote|db:citation[not($footcite/ancestor::db:footnote)]"
from="db:chapter"/>
      </xsl:when>
      <xsl:otherwise>
        <xsl:number level="any" select="$footcite"
          
count="db:footnote|db:citation[not($footcite/ancestor::db:footnote)]"/>
      </xsl:otherwise>
    </xsl:choose>
  </xsl:function>

I then call the function in those templates like so:

        <xsl:template match="db:citation">
          <xsl:choose>
            <xsl:when test="$citeclass='note-bib' or $citeclass='note-nobib'">
              <xsl:variable name="footnote-number">
                <xsl:value-of select="bib:number-footcite(.)"/>
              </xsl:variable>
              <xsl:text>[</xsl:text>
              <a href="#fn{$footnote-number}" name="fnm{$footnote-number}"
class="footnote-mark">
                <xsl:value-of select="$footnote-number"/>
              </a>
              <xsl:text>]</xsl:text>
            </xsl:when>
            <xsl:otherwise>
              <xsl:call-template name="bib:format-citation">
                <xsl:with-param name="output-format" select="'xhtml'"/>
              </xsl:call-template>
            </xsl:otherwise>
          </xsl:choose>
        </xsl:template>

So if I don't specify not to count db:citation elements that are
descendents of db:footnote, they get double-counted.
