Riiiight! Right-o. It tests for *child* br! Thank you. I shoulda thought
through that more ... and I will read up on this business one of these, uh,
days.

It worked, it just didn't select what you expected.
select="/textarea/node()[not(br)]"
br selects child br nodes so node()[not(br)] selects nodes that don't
have a br child nodes, which is all nodes in your example.
You could use /textarea/node()[not(self::br)] but its simpler just to use
/textarea/text()
