For counts exceeding 9, make sure the value is treated as a number:

   <xsl:sort select="count(key('p',n))" data-type="number"/>

ah yes, for xslt 1 that's true (xslt 2 knows that count() returns
numbers)

Oh yes, how convenient, I didn't know that. On page 458 of his XSLT and
XPath 2.0 reference (2008), Michael Kay writes that in 2.0, @data-type
is only there for backward compatibility with 1.0, sorting being already
sensitive to the types of the items being sorted (p.456).
