[xsl] Problem with sort order

Hi,

In my xslt file, I want to examine the attributes of the xml elements,
transform some of them (if needed), and then sort the output after the
attributes. My problem is that the transformed attributes become sorted
after their "ingoing" value instead of their new value. The following
invented example shows the problem. According to the xsl 1.0
specs the output of the transformation should be sorted, but here it seems
like the input is being sorted. Does anyone know how I can get it right?

Thanks in advance,
Per

The xml-file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="xslt_file.xsl"?>
<animal>
   <species>
       <name language="English">Wolf</name>
       <name language="Spanish">Lobo</name>
       <name language="Danish">Canis Lupus</name>
       <name language="French">Loup</name>
   </species>
</animal>

The xsl-file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
   <xsl:output method="xml"/>
   <xsl:template match="/animal">
       <animal>
           <xsl:apply-templates select="species"/>
       </animal>
   </xsl:template>
   <xsl:template match="species">
       <species>
           <xsl:for-each select="name">
           <xsl:sort select="@language"/>
              <xsl:choose>
                   <xsl:when test="@language='Danish'">
                       <name language="Latin"><xsl:value-of 
select="."/></name>
                   </xsl:when>
                   <xsl:otherwise>
                       <name language="{(_at_)language}"><xsl:value-of 
select="."/></name>
                   </xsl:otherwise>
               </xsl:choose>
           </xsl:for-each>
       </species>
   </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

The output:

<animal>
    <species>
         <name language="Latin">Canis Lupus</name>
         <name language="English">Wolf</name>
         <name language="French">Loup</name>
         <name language="Spanish">Lobo</name>
    </species>
</animal>

The desired output:

<animal>
    <species>
         <name language="English">Wolf</name>
         <name language="French">Loup</name>
         <name language="Latin">Canis Lupus</name>
         <name language="Spanish">Lobo</name>
    </species>
</animal>
