Michael,
The specification for xsl:number in XSLT 1.0 is less than perfect,
particularly as regards the meaning of the "from" pattern, and as a
result
there are quite a few differences between implementations.
thank you for your assessment!
Why not make the move to XSLT 2.0 and Saxon?
I am developer of another XSLT processor ... :-)
But later I will try Saxon-B on below problem.

While this works for xsltproc (compiled against libxml 20626,
libxslt 10117 and libexslt 813) it does not work for
xalan-j_2_7_0 -- is that an xalan bug?

immediately see how this result can be justified, so by all means raise it
as a bug, but you may not get very far.
