I think you have hit a bug in Xalan. I don't see any problem with that
XPath expression and other XSLT 1.0 processors like Saxon 6.5 or MSXML
run the stylesheet without problems.

I think it may be because the stylesheet was loaded using a Stream so
the System Id is unknown, meaning the empty call to document('')
returns nothing.

Calling setSystemId() on the stream should fix it, or just separate
out the <my:char2bar> block into a separate file and not use the
'hack' (or use nnn:node-set())
