When I run your code on Saxon 8.9.0.4 I get:
Error on line 27 of file:/c:/temp/test.xsl:
XTDE1310: format-number picture: Cannot have a grouping separator adjacent
to the decimal separator
After fixing that, there does seem to be a Saxon problem: a number that is
equal to zero after rounding to the required number of digits is displayed
as 0, not as 0.00.
The problem appears to be present in 8.9.0.4 but not in 8.9.0.3, so it
shouldn't be hard to track down.

Subject: [xsl] Unexpected Results with format-number()
I've just noticed a difference in the way small numbers are
formatting.
When I wrote this a few weeks ago, small numbers formatted
with the correct precision. Now it seems the format string
is being ignored.
I believe I was using Saxon 8.8 when I first wrote the code.
I updated to Saxon 8.9.0.4 yesterday, but that may just be a
coincidence.
What am I missing?
Sample XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<values>
<amt>-0.003000</amt>
<amt>-0.001500</amt>
<amt>0.003000</amt>
<amt>0.00</amt>
<amt>0</amt>
</values>
Expected output:
amt: [-0.003] formatted-value: [-$0.00]
amt: [-0.0015] formatted-value: [-$0.00]
amt: [0.003] formatted-value: [$0.00]
amt: [0] formatted-value: [$0.00]
amt: [0] formatted-value: [$0.00]
Actual output:
amt: [-0.003] formatted-value: [-$0]
amt: [-0.0015] formatted-value: [-$0]
amt: [0.003] formatted-value: [$0]
amt: [0] formatted-value: [$0]
amt: [0] formatted-value: [$0]
Stylesheet:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet

<xsl:template match="/values">

<xsl:apply-templates select="amt" />
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="amt">
<p>
<xsl:value-of select="fk:nbr-format(.)" />
</p>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:function name="fk:nbr-format">
<xsl:param name="amt" as="xs:double" />
<xsl:variable name="picture" select="'$,.00'" />
amt: [<xsl:value-of select="$amt" />]
formatted-value: [<xsl:value-of
select="format-number(number($amt), string($picture))" />]
</xsl:function>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Thanks!
