Thanks for the response.  Are you sure that's correct or am I goofing
it up somehow?  Using Saxon 8.4, I get an error trying to use your
solution...

No, that won't work.  You need to look at all your ancestors, then find
the closest one that matches your pattern:

ancestor::*[name() = 'A' or name() = 'B'][1]

HTH,
Chris
